Share and connect with friends without worrying about hate, spam, or ads on the world's first toxicity-free social network, Wildr. [COMING SOON] MONETIZATION Don’t have a huge following? No problem. At Wildr, we want to empower all users to become content creators and allow everyone to seamlessly monetize their content. Users will also be able to support each other directly through tips on the platform. NFTs and Wildr coins coming soon. AI-ENABLED FILTERING We detect toxicity in any content our users put out, whether that be photos, captions, or comments. Scroll stress-free knowing that you won’t come across any triggering content on your feed. THE PROFILE RING Your profile picture will have a color-coded ring around it that will indicate to others what kinds of comments you’ve been posting. If you’ve been a positive influence on the community, your ring will be green. If you’ve been toxic… Well, your ring will turn red and comments access will be disabled. So watch out for our community guidelines to stay on our platform! Wildr Verified We make sure to verify each user’s identity before they’re allowed to comment in order to hold individuals accountable for what they say. Our verification process is called Wildr Verified which uses AI technology to match your face to a photo of your choosing. HOME FEED Scroll to see what your friends are up to.
