Pitch

Imagine a world where every passion has its perfect place. Where film buffs, music lovers, and hobbyists don't just scroll – they share real moments and build actual human relationships.
What if your digital life actually made your real life better?
Empowering Anyone to Build Their Social Universe

In a world of one-size-fits-all social networks, people are yearning for spaces that truly reflect who they are and what they love. Not just another app – but a home for their passions, their people, their authentic selves.
That's why we built Connyct.
We believe:
- Everyone deserves the power to create their own digital world.
- Privacy isn't an afterthought, but the foundation.
- Communities aren't just followers, but genuine connections.
- Online interactions should foster real-world moments.
We're not just building another social platform. We're giving people the tools to build their own social universes – spaces where shared interests become lasting connections, where passion creates opportunity, and where everyone can find their people.
Social Media Is Completely Broken

The Reality:
- Big Tech and foreign governments are selling your data to everyone (an average of over 2000 data brokers)
- Your algorithm is designed to feed you addictive, negative engagement bait, and AI-generated garbage (dead internet theory)— not connection
- Your 'social' experience is anything but social.
- You're forced to juggle endless apps just to keep up
- The cost to build a social community for your group, brand, or community is prohibitively high
The next generation of users demands something different: focused spaces for real connections, seamless event planning, and genuine community building. They're tired of adapting to platforms – they want platforms that adapt to them.
It's time for social media that serves you, not surveils you.
Where Passion Meets People

Our formula is simple but powerful:
- The best features of today's leading platforms
- Blending TikTok's viral appeal with Reddit's community focus
- Innovating a revolutionary Events Center where digital connections spark real-world moments
- Industry-leading security built on US infrastructure on US-based AWS infrastructure with granular privacy controls
- Putting the ‘power’ in the hands of the people — you.

It All Starts On Campus

The college strategy isn't just proven – it's perfect for Connyct. Here's why:
Dense Networks + Geographic Focus = Rapid Growth

Social's New Chapter

The social landscape is fragmenting into specialized platforms - and the market is rewarding it. Recent highlights:
- BeReal's $537M exit shows appetite for authentic social experiences
- Saturn's $300M valuation validates social+calendar integration
- College-focused platforms like Fizz ($41.5M raise) prove our target market
- Posh ($22M raise) and Flip ($1B valuation) demonstrate continued momentum
- College & Gen-Z focused startups proving particularly attractive targets
- Traditional tech giants actively acquiring in this space (Discord, Voodoo)
- Specialized platforms consistently achieving strong user growth and retention
This validates both our timing and approach: build for specific communities first, then scale.
Capturing Value Across the Social Stack

Connyct isn't just building a platform - we're creating an ecosystem where everyone can monetize their social capital. From individual creators to brand communities, our revenue model is designed for the new social economy.
The foundation starts with proven monetization channels across premium features, brand partnerships, and enterprise solutions. But where we truly differentiate is enabling commerce at every level:
- Creators unlock new revenue streams through integrated tools and AI-powered recommendations
- Communities tap into a $1.2T social commerce market through our Connyct Shop platform
- Brands engage through native advertising and sponsored communities
- Enterprise clients leverage our API for custom social solutions
This multi-layered approach aligns perfectly with Gen-Z's integrated view of social, commerce, and community. Our platform doesn't just enable transactions - it empowers economic opportunity across the entire social stack.

And this is just the beginning. Our vision for the future will transform how communities and developers engage with social platforms:
- Modular functionality that lets communities customize their experience
- Developer tools and APIs that enable third-party innovation
- A complete ecosystem where developers can build and monetize new features
We're not just another social platform – we're creating the infrastructure for the future of digital community, where every group can have their own personalized social space, tailored exactly to their needs.
