A personal social network for real relationships
Private conversations with people you know. Text-only for now, no ads, no algorithms, and your data stays secure. See posts from people you choose, not what an algorithm wants you to see. Your conversations stay between you and your friends. Not even we can read them.
Get notified when new features launch and when mobile/web versions become available.
When you post on OurCloud Social, your content is encrypted before leaving your device. Only you and the friends you share with can decrypt and read it. The service operator, network administrators, and anyone else looking at the data sees only encrypted gibberish.
Think of it like a locked safe that only opens with your friends' keys. Even the people storing the safe can't peek inside.
Traditional social media depends on companies staying in business. If a major platform shuts down tomorrow, decades of your memories vanish. OurCloud is different.
Your data lives on a distributed network, not controlled by any single company. As long as you or your friends keep copies, your data persists. If OurCloud the company disappeared, your data remains safe and accessible.
The same encrypted data can be used by new applications as they're built. For example, a future photo app could organize and display your images, making your existing data more useful without requiring you to upload it again or trust a new company with your privacy.
Share updates with friends, comment, and stay connected. Simple, ad-free communication.
Built on the same distributed infrastructure, secure file backup and sharing will be available as complementary features.
Share photos and videos with the same privacy guarantees as text posts.
Developers will be able to build new applications on top of your encrypted data, unlocking features we haven't imagined yet.
Most privacy-focused platforms still require you to trust the company running them. With OurCloud Social, the data is encrypted in a way that makes it technically impossible for anyone except you and your friends to read it. Not even us.
You see posts from people you follow, in chronological order. That's it. No hidden ranking, no promoted content, no manipulation to keep you scrolling. You control what you see.
The demo is free to use. Our long-term model involves a small one-time fee for an account rather than subscriptions or advertising. We're building this to be sustainable, not to extract maximum value from your attention.
For the current demo, you need an Android phone. We're working on web and iPhone versions. Sign up below to stay updated on availability.
This beta is not ready if you need polished UI, rich media support, or a large existing user base. It's for people who want to help shape a privacy-focused platform from the ground up and are comfortable with rough edges.
