Why Use Tapestry?

A Vision for an Open, Fair, and Healthy Internet​

In an era where an oligopoly of tech giants controls much of our digital lives, Tapestry emerges as a beacon of change. We're not just building another social platform; we're starting a revolution in how we interact with and own our data online.

Reclaiming Digital Sovereignty​

For too long, our personal data has been locked away in the walled gardens of Meta, TikTok, and Google. Tapestry breaks down these walls by writing user data on a fully open, permissionless, and decentralized social protocol, not a private database. This simple yet powerful shift returns sovereignty to where it belongs: with developers and end users.

Ironclad Guarantees​

Developers, say goodbye to the fear of being arbitrarily kicked off a platform. Users, wave farewell to having your data held hostage by apps that prioritize engagement and the demands of advertisers over your mental health. These promises aren't just words — they're backed by the immutability and permissionlessness of blockchain technology.

A Healthier Digital Ecosystem​

By choosing Tapestry, you're contributing to a world where social media enhances rather than deteriorates mental health. A world where your data serves you and your users, not advertisers. A world where you control your digital footprint.

Concrete Benefits for Developers​

Integrating Tapestry into your app isn't just about ideals — it's about tangible rewards:

  • Earn Points: Every time your app's data is read by another app on the protocol, you earn points.
  • Be Rewarded for Quality: The more useful and high-quality your data, the more you're rewarded.
  • Build the Future: Just as drivers help build maps on Hivemapper and hotspot operators expand Helium's coverage, you're helping to create the open, permissionless, decentralized social layer of tomorrow's internet — and you will be rewarded accordingly.

Empowering End Users​

For users, Tapestry offers a new paradigm of digital engagement:

  • Earn as You Engage: The more apps you use in the Tapestry ecosystem and the more you engage, the more points you earn.
  • Own Your Contributions: Your points reflect your particpation in shaping the next generation of social internet.
  • True Data Portability: Your social graph and data belong to you, not to any single app or platform.

Join the Revolution​

We stand at the threshold of a new digital age — one where openness, fairness, and user empowerment are not just ideals, but realities. Tapestry is more than a platform; it's a movement. And we need you to help write the next chapter.

Together, we can create an internet that serves humanity, not the other way around. An internet where your data is yours, your voice matters, and your digital life enhances your real one.

The revolution starts with a single step. Take that step with Tapestry today, and let's build a better digital world—together.
