We're building the social networkthe world actually needs.
KONKT was born from a simple observation: social media was designed to maximise engagement, not human wellbeing. We're changing that.

Macro apps planned
Degrees of separation
Safety-first commitment
Meaningful connection
over mindless scroll.
The average person spends 6.5 hours per day on social media but reports feeling more isolated than ever. KONKT is the antidote — a platform where every interaction is intentional, every connection is verified, and every feature is designed to bring people closer together in the real world.
Inspired by Stanley Milgram's Six Degrees of Separation theory, we've built an AI-powered graph that makes the invisible paths between people visible, actionable, and safe.
"We're not building another social network. We're building the infrastructure for human trust."
Jordan Okafor, CEO
Principles we don't compromise on.
Trust First
Every feature, every decision, every line of code is built with trust as the primary constraint — not engagement metrics.
Meaningful Over Viral
We optimise for depth of connection, not breadth of engagement. One real relationship beats a thousand superficial likes.
Safety as Infrastructure
Safety is not a feature — it's the foundation. We build protection into the architecture, not as an add-on.
AI with Integrity
Our AI serves users, not advertisers. It surfaces what matters to you, not what keeps you scrolling.
Community Ownership
KONKT communities are governed by their members. We provide the tools; the community sets the culture.
Radical Transparency
We publish our safety reports, moderation decisions, and algorithm principles. No black boxes.
Built by people who care.
