Where creators are verified, and every fan is close.
CONNECTED gives creators and influencers their own channel — posts, stories, live and real chat with the people who follow them. Merit-based verification keeps it authentic. Built-in payments let fans support the creators they love. One app — no bots, no noise.
A whole social platform, built around the creator.
Six ways to reach your people and keep them close — designed to feel personal at any scale, from your first follower to your hundred-thousandth.
Channels
Every creator gets a home of their own — a channel to broadcast to, grow, and shape the way only they can.
Chat & DMs
Real, end-to-end encrypted conversations between creators and the people who actually show up for them.
Posts
Share moments, updates and ideas to a feed built for reach without the algorithmic noise.
Stories
In-the-moment glimpses that vanish in 24 hours — close while they last, with view receipts that matter.
Thoughts
Drop a thought, start a thread, and let your community think out loud with you in real time.
Live
Go live to your channel with low-latency video and chat that turns an audience into a room.
The things other platforms won't build.
Most social apps optimize for time-on-feed. CONNECTED optimizes for trust between creators and the people who value them. That changes everything.
Merit-based verification
No blue tick you can buy. CONNECTED verifies real people and real creators on merit, so a follow means something and bots have nowhere to hide.
Creator payments built in
Subscriptions, tips and paid channels are native — not a bolted-on link in a bio. Fans support creators directly, and creators keep the relationship.
Private by default
Messages are end-to-end encrypted and local data is stored encrypted on-device. Your conversations are yours — we are built so we can't read them.
Cloud-native infrastructure, so the product feels instant.
CONNECTED runs on a serverless, AWS-native backend in Mumbai (ap-south-1) — managed identity, real-time delivery and an automated media pipeline. The result is a social network that stays fast and secure as the community grows.
Real-time at scale
Presence, chat, DMs and notifications ride a Go realtime tier over Redis streams and Socket.IO — messages land in milliseconds.
Cloud-native video
Stories and clips upload straight to object storage, then a serverless pipeline transcodes to adaptive HLS automatically.
Secure by design
Managed identity, encrypted transport, signed uploads and least-privilege access across every service.

Frequently asked.
What is CONNECTED?
CONNECTED is a creator-first social network. Creators and influencers run their own channel — posts, stories, live and direct chat — while followers get a genuine line to the people they care about. It's available on iOS, Android and the web.
Who is it for?
Creators, influencers and the communities around them — anyone who wants real reach and real conversations without bots, fake engagement, or an algorithm deciding who hears them.
How does verification work?
Verification on CONNECTED is merit-based, not for sale. We confirm that real people and real creators are who they say they are, so a verified badge is a signal of authenticity rather than a paid upgrade.
Is my data private?
Yes. Direct messages are end-to-end encrypted, on-device data is stored encrypted, and we design our systems so we hold as little of your personal data as possible. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
How do creators get paid?
Payments are native to the platform — subscriptions, tips and paid channels let fans support creators directly, with the creator owning that relationship instead of renting it from an algorithm.
When does it launch?
