Our Team

As veterans ourselves, we feel as though we have an obligation to protect the rights and freedoms of the people. Taking care of brothers and sister in arms, individuals who may not know where else to turn, can rely on our support and willingness to provide a place they can turn to if/when needed.


Veterans Bring the Change Social Media Needs

Sayscape is a platform developed by a group of veterans with a passion for sharing their dreams with others. Some features of the application include data encryption, meaning the users data is safe from outside sources, we don’t sell data to other companies for advertising purposes, a customizable feed, so you can see more of what you do want, and less of what you don’t, likely the most notable, a private veterans feed. This feed is exclusive for verified veterans, and allows them to talk about their lives and stories in a safe environment with people like them. The private feed will also serve as a place for veterans who may suffer from PTSD to seek out immediate and direct support or refer to the Crisis Hotline number that is always at the top of the feed that will directly dial the phone if touched.

Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, countless social media networks exist for one reason, and one reason alone: for people to share and express themselves. However, even such a basic idea as the freedom of expression is being threatened on these platforms. With vague terms of service and a new action called ‘Shadow Banning’, the platform that the freedom of expression stood on is crumbling. However, Sayscape aims to change that, and bring about a new type of social media. One that gets back to what it’s supposed to be. A platform for users.

All the features implemented, such as an edit button, chronological feeds, and time bomb posts, aim to improve upon what other social media networks started. Any opinion is welcomed and shared on the platform, however, they know when to take control and act on dangerous and/or harmful situations, assuring the safety and comfort of their users.
