Amara

Social that feels good.

Built around how you feel — not how long you stay.

Currently in invite-only testing through TestFlight.

Why it feels different

Other apps optimize for time on screen. We optimize for how you feel after.

A feed that fills you up — not one that drains you

Most feeds keep score by how long they hold your attention. We keep score by how good you feel after closing the app. Saves matter most. Likes matter least. Nothing trends forever — content fades so you don't feel like you're missing out.

Calm by design

Following stays chronological — no algorithmic reshuffle, no resurfaced old posts, no doom rabbit hole. When you want to see what your people made, it's right there, newest first. Always.

Made for what you actually create

Recipes get to be recipes. Workouts get to be workouts. Essays get to breathe. Seven post types, one platform — so you don't have to flatten what you make into a square photo.

Your data stays your data

We don't sell it. We don't monetize it. No ads chasing you across every screen you look at. Just a quiet place to make the things you make and find the people who care.

Made for what you actually have to say

Seven ways to post. Each one rendered like it matters.

Tap any post and it opens into a layout designed for what's inside — not a one-size-fits-all photo card.

Recipe

Ingredients + steps

Ingredients, steps, prep time, the whole thing — never a screenshot you have to pinch-zoom in the comments.

Workout

Sets, reps, structure

Exercises with sets, reps, rest, and the body parts that matter. Save it. Press play. Move.

Photo

Up to 10 images

Uncropped by default. Vertical, square, landscape — your composition reads the way you meant it.

Spark

Short-form video

Vertical, full-screen, snap-scroll. We don't autoplay through the night. You stop when you want to stop.

Blog

Long-form writing

Full essays. Cover image. Title. Body. For when the caption isn't enough — and you actually have something to say.

Guide

Multi-step tutorials

Numbered steps with images where they help. The kind of post that earns a save and a thank-you.

Blurb

Text on a card

Text-only posts on a colored background. No photo required. Sometimes that's the whole post.

Hide the counts

Turn off what makes social media feel like a scoreboard.

Likes, views, comments, follower counts — toggle them off on your own posts, or hide them everywhere in your view. The first social app that treats this as a first-class setting, not buried three menus deep.

For creators

A platform that takes you seriously.

Every other social app treats creators like a content farm. We want you to make things you're proud of — and get real value back.

  • Real creator tools

    Analytics you can actually read, a profile that shows off your work, and a dashboard that treats you like a business.

  • Keep your audience

    Chronological Following feed means your posts reach people who follow you. No algorithmic throttling between you and the folks who already said 'show me more.'

  • Get found for what you make

    Discover ranks content by saves and conversation, not clickbait. If you're making something worth returning to, the algorithm boosts it.

  • Monetization, eventually

    Stripe-powered tips and creator payouts are on the roadmap. Transparent revenue share, not surveillance advertising.

Come make the internet feel good again.
