About
What you give comes back.
The thing that started it
For years, one of us did this by hand.
Someone needed a person. He knew the person. He made the introduction, and then he watched what happened next: a deal that got done, a hire that got made, a round that started moving, a friendship that turned into a company. Again and again. He never charged for it, and people kept telling him he should.
What he was actually doing was routing. Somebody had a need. Somebody else, three conversations away, already had the answer sitting unused. The only thing standing between them was that neither one knew the other existed.
That gap is everywhere. It is in every street, every workplace, every group of people who would help each other if they could just see each other. The help already exists. The routing does not.
Why nobody built this
Every social platform organised something. One organised identity. One organised moments. One organised attention.
None of them organised what people can actually give, and what they actually need.
The problem is hard in a specific way. What a person needs and what a person can give are both statements about being human, and routing them takes an understanding of meaning, so matching keywords was never going to be enough. Reciprocity does not survive scale without a way to measure it that keeps people from becoming scores. And nobody trusts a stranger without a reason they can read.
Those three things became possible in the last few years, all at once. That is the only reason this is a company in 2026 and not in 2006.
What we built
Gigets is a social network for mutual help.
You say what you need. You say what you can give. The match is found, and it comes with a reason you can read, in one plain sentence, so you know why this person and not somebody else.
Then two humans take over, which is the entire point. Our colour drains out of the screen at the exact moment you are Connected, because from there it is a conversation between two people and we are not in it.
When the help is done, the Exchange is priced in Gigets, the internal unit, and it enters both records. Nothing is scored. Nobody is ranked. The record shows what moved, and what it was worth.
Gigets cannot be bought. There is no way to buy your way into being helped, and there never will be. The only way to have is to have given.
What we refuse to build
We wrote these down early, so that they would still be true when it becomes expensive for them to be.
No advertising. Attention is not our business model. No third party pays to reach you. Grow is built to end, not to hold you.
No score on a person. We price Exchanges. We never price people. No leaderboards, no ratings, no number under anyone's face, anywhere in the product, the database, or the API.
No money between members. Money is the thing that turns a favour into a job and a community into a market. We keep it out.
Nothing that cannot be explained. Every automated output carries a reason a member can read. If we cannot explain it, we do not ship it.
No pressure. No guilt, no scarcity, no streaks, no countdowns. Reciprocity is voluntary, and a system built on it stops working the moment it stops being voluntary.
A product designed to be finished rather than to hold you is a strange thing to build on purpose. We built it on purpose.
Who this is for
Everyone.
Gigets is for anybody who has ever needed something that somebody they know already had.
Two lines carry the two hardest moments in this product, and they are the two we care most about getting right.
Everyone can help someone. For the person who thinks they have nothing worth giving.
Someone can always help. For the person who is afraid to ask.
Where we are
