Vichaar gives you and the people you choose a real question worth answering — every day. You talk it through in private. Then the thinking, not your name, goes up on a public wall. A QUESTION WORTH ANSWERING Every day, each of your connections gets its own prompt, drawn from something that actually happened this week and matched to the interests the two of you share. Each one carries a short brief — enough context to answer properly without homework — and a link to the source, so you can check its work. Not “what’s on your mind?” TALK IT THROUGH, PRIVATELY Conversations are invitation-only. Nobody can start a thread with you unless you accepted their request, so there is no inbox from strangers. Threads are real-time, they stay open after everyone has answered, and you can edit or delete your own messages. Talk one-to-one, or bring a small group — a group picks up a new topic thread each day, all running at once. THEN THE IDEA GOES PUBLIC. ALONE. When everyone has answered, each person’s contribution is published on the wall as an anonymous response. Your name is not on it and never will be. Others can Like, Dislike or reply — and replies are anonymous too. Nobody can see who reacted to what, including you. This is not an anonymous app. Your conversations are named, with people who know exactly who you are. It is the published idea that is anonymous — identity is stripped after the conversation, never offered instead of it. JUDGED ON THE IDEA, NOT THE IDENTITY Two numbers, kept apart on purpose. Your Social Score rises only when people on the wall endorse your ideas — never from posting, streaks, or simply showing up, and dislikes don’t lower it. It breaks down per topic, so you can be trusted on cinema and unknown on economics. Momentum is the separate participation number. The scoring rules are published in the app; you can read exactly how both work. STREAKS THAT MEAN SOMETHING A streak here isn’t a login counter. It’s a single conversation that has stayed alive, with at least one message from everyone, every day. Milestones along the way, and Streak Shields to protect a live streak — free, several a month, nothing to buy. Pause a connection and the streak genuinely freezes where it was. YOUR OWN SPACE Post text, a photo, a poll or a passing thought — signed by default, anonymous if you prefer. Share a 24-hour story. Follow interests as hashtags, find people, invite the friends you actually argue with. BUILT FOR ADULTS, BUILT CAREFULLY Vichaar is 18+. Optional selfie verification, block and report on every surface, and automatic action when several people report the same thing. Images are checked before they are ever stored. Your photos live in private storage and are served only through short-lived links — nothing sits on a public address. Sign in with your phone number; we never ask for an email. FREE All of it. No subscriptions, no paywall, nothing to buy. Unlimited connections, conversations, posts and groups. Vichaar — विचार — is Hindi for thought. The considered kind, the sort you arrive at by talking it through with someone who will push back.
