Our World

The need for healthier and more suitable lifestyle is rising. Environmental and social awareness and activism are exploding driving demand for transparency and change.

Our problem

Obtaining clear, relevant and unbiased information is extremely difficult for consumers.

Our
advantage

Conscious Consumerism and demand for relevant, unbiased information have been on a surge in the most recent years. Existing applications attemting to address this demand are too niche and concentrated on single use case. They also do not offer the user personalization and values alignment features. Therefore, the results they produce are too general and appealing only to a narrow segment of the society.
