Trust the web again

Social media built on credibility, for better conversations

A place where the best ideas actually rise to the top, and trust is earned by what you say.

Core pillars

How It Works

Six ideas behind how UpTrust works - and why it feels different from everywhere else.

01

Trust-Based Ranking

The best ideas rise to the top. We rank content by how credible and useful it is, so quality wins over clickbait.

02

User Sovereignty

You decide who you trust and what you see. Your feed, your rules - no black-box algorithm overriding your choices.

03

Bridge-Building

Disagreement is healthy. We reward people who engage honestly with other viewpoints instead of shouting them down.

04

Evolving Trust

Reputation isn't static. It grows as you contribute, and the community evolves its standards together over time.

05

Collective Wellbeing

We measure success by whether people actually understand each other better - not by time spent scrolling.

06

Evidence & Provenance

Every claim comes with context. See who's behind it, what backs it up, and why others find it credible.

Your community

Your space, your people

The internet used to feel like this - small groups, real conversations, people you actually know. We're bringing that back.

Family & Close Friends

Share updates, plan dinners, stay in the loop. Just your people, no noise.

Hobbies & Interests

Book clubs, gardening, film photography - talk about what you actually care about with people who care too.

School & Learning

Study groups, class discussions, shared notes. A place where asking questions is the whole point.

Neighborhoods & Local

Restaurant recs, local events, neighborhood news. Like a town square that actually works.

The Problem

Social media is broken

Platforms that once promised connection now optimize for engagement at any cost. Algorithms reward outrage, misinformation spreads faster than truth, and divisive content is amplified because it keeps people scrolling.

The result? Conversations get worse, trust erodes, and communities split apart - all so ads can be sold against your attention.

Our Solution

Trust over engagement

UpTrust takes a different approach. We rank content by trust and credibility. People who consistently bring good information and honest perspectives are the ones you'll hear from most.

Our trust system lets you see why something is credible - who vouches for it, what evidence supports it, and how it fits into the bigger picture.

FAQ

Common
questions

UpTrust is a social platform where content is ranked by trust and credibility. The stuff that's actually reliable and useful gets seen. The stuff that's just loud doesn't.

Everyone starts with a clean slate. As you contribute useful, honest content, your reputation grows. The community decides together who's worth listening to.

We're live right now. Sign up and start posting - your reputation builds from day one.

Most platforms want you scrolling as long as possible. We'd rather you leave feeling like you learned something. We reward good-faith conversation, even across disagreements.
