LeafPlaza is a European social ecosystem built on open-source software and the AT Protocol. We start with microblogging, but the vision is bigger: an open, sovereign social layer for Europe with verifiable ownership, infrastructure, and code. You can check who owns us, where your data lives, and what the platform is built on. Not because we say so, but because it is all public. **Why LeafPlaza?** **Verifiably European, not just labelled European** LeafPlaza Oรœ is a private limited company registered in Estonia, owned by two named European founders. No anonymous investors. No venture capital. Funded entirely by our users. Company registration is public at the Estonian Business Registry. **Transparent infrastructure** Your social data is hosted on Hostinger, an EU-registered company, in their Frankfurt data centre. Our website and DNS run on Infomaniak in Switzerland, an EFTA-registered company. All account, DNS, and email infrastructure is operated by European providers. **Open-source by design** LeafPlaza is built on Free and Open-Source Software. Our app is based on Bluesky's open-source code with minor modifications. The AT Protocol stack is open. Nothing proprietary controls your data. We disclose known third-party dependencies and publish our progress in replacing them. **No ads. No data sales. Ever.** Our business and monetization strategy is clearly stated on our website. We do not monetize attention or data. Our business model is funded by our users, not advertising or data collection. **AT Protocol interoperability** LeafPlaza runs a full AT Protocol instance. You can interact across the entire AT Protocol network, including Bluesky. Your account travels with you. We are not a walled garden. **Features** * Microblogging feed compatible with Bluesky and the AT Protocol network. * Posts, replies, likes, reposts, and direct messaging. * Use your account in any other app built on the AT Protocol. * Human certification for personal accounts and useful bots. * Profile discovery across the AT Protocol ecosystem. * Moderation tools and transparent community standards. * Native mobile experience on iOS. * Social data hosted exclusively in the EU/EFTA. LeafPlaza grows at the pace its community supports. No investor pressure. No artificial roadmap inflation. **Our six public commitments** * We will always disclose who owns us. * We will always disclose where your data is stored, with named providers. * We will always build on open-source components. * We will never sell your data. * We will never take money from anonymous investors. * We will never move your data outside the EU or EFTA without your explicit knowledge and consent. **For people who want proof, not promises.** Learn more at leafplaza.eu/transparency
