Our perspective

Our killer feature

We belong to our users.

We’re entirely owned by our users. No investors. No shareholders. No side letters or backroom dealing. Our users call the shots and split the profits.

100% user-owned. We exist for the benefit of our users and no one else. Users get all the profits and govern what we do.

Profits in proportion to clicks. Any profits we make go back to our users in proportion to the number of clicks on our services. Every click increases that share.

One user, one vote governance. Users democratically govern us. Every user gets one vote on all big decisions, like electing our board. Our staff handles the day-to-day.

Our mission

Our funding

Bootstrapped by our users.

We’re proudly and exclusively funded by our users so we don’t become part of anyone else’s agenda.
