Sircles

"There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come.” -Victor Hugo

For Sircles, that time is now.

We stand at the dawn of a new era in social networking—one where positivity and genuine community triumph over toxicity. Sircles is more than just an app; it’s a movement on a mission to transform how we connect and support each other online.

Our vision is to build an online community rooted in trust, sharing, and positive recommendations—free from the toxic reviews, bullying, and manipulation that plague other platforms. For too long, giants like Yelp have profited from a culture of negativity, exploiting small businesses by filtering out 5-star reviews unless they pay to play. Sircles flips this model on its head, fostering only uplifting, authentic interactions that help communities thrive.

In fact, our bold tagline says it all:

Sircles is “the social recommendations app designed to destroy Yelp!”

Not through petty rivalry, but by making the old, negative system obsolete—and replacing it with something fundamentally better.

The Momentum is Real

For years, Facebook claimed its mission was to make the world more open and connected, but instead, it has allowed algorithms to drive division, creating an online environment that has been manipulated by foreign actors, fueling societal fractures. Rather than strengthening relationships, it has contributed to polarization and misinformation, eroding the fabric of trust.

Sircles has the potential to be the next major social platform that brings people together for the right reasons. While we set out to take on Yelp, we realized something bigger: our social features are creating positive, meaningful interactions between friends and family—something that can reshape online engagement for generations to come.

This is more than a review platform—this is a movement to restore trust and connection in a way that benefits society for decades.

This isn’t just a grand idea on paper—we’re already seeing it in action.

✅ Sircles is LIVE on iOS and Android and has already surpassed 50,000 users.

✅ Our App Store rating is 4.6 stars on iOS.

✅ Engagement is growing rapidly—more group chats are forming, more users are inviting friends, active streaks are increasing, and we’re seeing more Favorites and Check-ins than ever before.

✅ Over 30,000 unique businesses have already been favorited inside Sircles, proving that trusted recommendations are at the heart of our platform.

We’ve also been recognized by major tech accelerators, receiving $100,000 in credits from Amazon’s AWS Activate program and NVIDIA’s accelerator, powering our infrastructure as we scale.

We have the product, the team, and the momentum to grow Sircles into a dominant social platform—now all we need is you.

Innovating Group Chats: A New Way to Share and Connect

At the heart of Sircles is a patent-pending innovation that is reshaping the way group chats function. Users can form groups and share recommendations inside them through structured topics, making it easier than ever to discover and discuss trusted content with friends, communities, and interest-based groups.

We see this happening organically inside Sircles today, in both small friend groups and large public communities.

One example is 916 Events, a Sacramento-based group with over 1,300 members, where local events are shared as topics so users can quickly access what's happening throughout the week. Another great example is our “What’s Streaming?” chat, where users are actively sharing what shows and movies they are watching—providing instant, real-time recommendations among trusted circles.

From neighborhood groups to industry communities, Sircles’ innovative group chat design makes it effortless to share and find relevant content within a trusted network. This approach is unlike anything seen on existing chat platforms, and its potential to redefine group communication is undeniable.

Will this be the future of group chats? Time will tell—but one thing is clear: Sircles' approach is novel, innovative, and already driving real engagement.

We will be including screenshots to showcase this functionality so investors can see firsthand how this next evolution of group messaging works in action.

Businesses Powering the Network Effect

Sircles isn’t just growing through user adoption—it’s also bringing businesses into the ecosystem in a way no other platform has done before. Instead of forcing businesses to pay for ads or worry about public reviews, Sircles gives them a low-risk, high-reward way to engage customers.

💡 Favorites, Not Reviews – Asking for a Favorite on Sircles is far safer than asking for a review. A Favorite is an endorsement seen only by a user's friends and trusted circles, rather than a public review that could be positive or negative. Since 70% of all online reviews are negative, businesses see Sircles as the better alternative to traditional review platforms.

💡Business Activations Drive Growth – We’ve been collaborating with businesses on activations that drive downloads. When customers Favorite a business inside Sircles, they’re not just interacting—they're strengthening the platform's network effect.

💡Deep Links & Organic Engagement – We are rolling out deep links that businesses can send to customers, asking them to Favorite their business on Sircles. This allows businesses to engage customers without the risk of negative reviews, creating a win-win scenario—businesses grow their loyal customer base, and Sircles gains more engaged users.

💡Long-Term Vision & Pricing Evolution – Businesses are already signing up at our $79 for 6 months / $129 per year pricing model. However, as the user base scales, so will pricing. The real tipping point will come when businesses join not because we are engaging them directly, but because Sircles has become an indispensable tool. This is the moment we achieve the network effect at scale—millions of users, and businesses adopting Sircles as a necessity rather than an experiment.

This approach aligns perfectly with our Ride the Escalator strategy—as businesses bring in their customers, those customers become active users, and more users bring in more businesses. It’s a self-reinforcing growth loop that positions Sircles as the future of business discovery and social recommendations.

Ride the Escalator: Crowdfunding as the Engine for Growth 

A key pillar of our race to the exit strategy is leveraging crowdfunding at scale. We've already proven that our most loyal users are also our investors, and this creates a powerful flywheel effect—more investors mean more users, and more users mean more investors. This is what we call the “Ride the Escalator” strategy.

We’ve raised $6M+ through Sacramento and Reno alone, and we hope to be increasing our valuation as we hit milestones that are commensurate with our growth, and this is just the beginning. Imagine scaling this success nationwide, opening Reg A+ crowdfunding campaigns, and amassing a $100M war chest driven by 100M users and investors to take on Yelp. A viral crowdfunding campaign doesn’t just mean capital—it means a viral app. Future projections are not guaranteed.

When people invest in Sircles, they don’t just invest—they join the movement. Our 6,800+ crowdfunding investors have built the foundation for our success, proving that grassroots backing is our superpower.
