Better Connections. Better Conversations. Better Intentions. READY TO HAVE A REAL CONVERSATION? Social media was designed to connect people; but is it really bringing us together? Meaningful dialogue has increasingly been replaced by character limits, echo chambers, online arguments, and the endless pursuit of followers. Respectful disagreement often leads to blocking, unfriending, harassment, or avoiding difficult conversations altogether. Better Intentions offers a different way to connect. Connect with people who share your interests, or start a conversation with someone whose experiences and perspectives may be different from your own. CONNECTIONS WITH INTENTION This is not another social media platform built around followers, likes, and public attention. Every connection begins with a shared willingness to communicate respectfully and have a meaningful one-on-one conversation. PROFILES BUILT AROUND WHAT MATTERS Create a profile that helps others understand your interests, values, and where you stand on important political and social issues. Instead of judging someone by a photo or a carefully curated feed, members get to know one another through ideas and conversation. We encourage you to use an alias to protect your identity and business. FIND COMMON GROUND—OR EXPLORE DIFFERENCES Filter profiles according to interests and positions on various issues. Connect with someone who shares your perspective or step outside your usual circle and meet someone you may not otherwise have encountered. INVITE SOMEONE TO TALK Found someone with an interesting perspective? Send an invitation to connect and identify the topics you would like to discuss. Both participants know what the conversation is about before it begins, helping create more thoughtful and intentional dialogue. COMMUNICATION WITHOUT DISTRACTIONS No profile photos. No image feeds. No videos. No pressure to perform for an audience. Better Intentions removes the visual distractions and popularity-driven features found on traditional social platforms so members can focus on open communication, thoughtful questions, and honest dialogue. A COMMUNITY BUILT ON RESPECT You do not have to agree to have a productive conversation. We encourage members to listen with curiosity, communicate respectfully, and approach differences with the intention of understanding—not attacking or winning. Because meaningful connection does not require complete agreement. It simply requires two people who are willing to talk. ... HOW IT WORKS Create a profile featuring your interests and perspectives on important issues. Search and filter members by their interests and positions. Discover people who share your views—or see the world differently. Invite another member to connect. Select the topics you would like to discuss. Begin a private, one-on-one conversation without images, videos, or social media distractions. ... MORE THAN ANOTHER SOCIAL NETWORK Better Intentions can help you connect with people who share your interests, but its greater purpose is to help create conversations that may not happen anywhere else. Meet someone outside your usual social circle. Ask questions. Share your experiences. Challenge assumptions. Find unexpected common ground. Better connections begin with better conversations.
