Equality in Every Voice
A social platform rooted in European values — where human rights, privacy, and democratic participation aren't features. They're foundations.
Why Isotes?
Social media promised to connect us. Instead, it divided us. We believe there's a better way.
Engagement Over Truth
Today's platforms optimize for outrage, not understanding. Algorithms amplify division because conflict drives clicks.
Eroding Trust
Opaque moderation, shadow bans, and inconsistent rules have shattered trust between platforms and communities.
Surveillance Economy
Your data is the product. Every interaction is tracked, profiled, and sold to the highest bidder.
Isotes is the answer: a platform designed from the ground up around human rights, transparent governance, and genuine community — not engagement metrics.
Our Values
Not just words on a page — the principles encoded into every line of code we write.
European Foundation
Built on the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights — not Silicon Valley's move-fast-and-break-things ethos. Headquartered in the EU, governed by EU law.
Human Rights First
Freedom of expression, dignity, non-discrimination, and privacy aren't just policies — they're the architecture. Every feature is rights-checked.
Privacy by Design
End-to-end encryption where it matters. Minimal data collection. No behavioral advertising. Your data stays yours, full stop.
Global Values, Local Roots
European in origin, universal in aspiration. We welcome everyone who shares the vision of a rights-respecting digital public square.
Features Built Different
Every feature starts with a question: does this respect human rights? If not, we don't build it.
Dunbar Circles
Organize your connections into meaningful layers — close friends, community, and broader network — reflecting how human relationships actually work.
Multi-Reactions
Go beyond likes. Express nuanced responses to content — agree, disagree, find it funny, or mark it as important — without reducing discourse to a popularity contest.
Rights Watch
An integrated transparency dashboard showing how your rights are being protected, moderation statistics, and platform governance decisions in real time.
Transparent Moderation
Every moderation decision is documented, appealable, and subject to community oversight. No more unexplained removals or shadow bans.
Content Warnings
User-driven content warnings that respect both freedom of expression and the wellbeing of the community. You control what you see.
Verification Tiers
Multiple levels of identity verification — from pseudonymous to fully verified — so you can choose your level of visibility and trust.
Built for Everyone
Whether you're organizing for change, sharing your work, or simply looking for a healthier online space — Isotes is for you.
Accessibility Commitment
Isotes is committed to WCAG 2.1 AA compliance from day one. We're building with screen readers, keyboard navigation, reduced motion preferences, and high-contrast modes in mind — because a platform for everyone must be usable by everyone.
Our Promise
Concrete commitments, not corporate platitudes.
