"Encryption isn't a privacy feature — it's the floor under every other freedom we ship. If your platform can read it, it was never yours."
A new kind of social platform
Clikkin is a privacy-first platform for building customizable, distributed social networks — spaces you actually own.
Free to start · iOS & Android · No tracking. Ever.
A live slice of public posts and top spaces across the network.
"Encryption isn't a privacy feature — it's the floor under every other freedom we ship. If your platform can read it, it was never yours."
New creator-economy report: 63% of paid communities said their audience would follow them off-platform if export was one click. We asked: why isn't it?
Why Clikkin exists
Social networks shouldn't profile you to monetize you. Your identity, your data, and the spaces you build should belong to you. Clikkin is what that looks like when built from first principles — a platform whose servers can't read your vault, can't decrypt your space, and can't hold your community hostage.
Encrypted in a hardware-backed Secure Vault. Our servers never see it in plaintext.
On Pro spaces, any post class you restrict from public view is encrypted under keys only your space's admins hold. Clikkin stores ciphertext it cannot read.
Members and space owners can leave with everything — posts, media, members, badges, coin history. No hostage clauses.
The seven primitives
Clikkin is built from seven composable primitives. Every feature, every tier, every space is some arrangement of these.
01 · Primitive
Customizable social networks. Individuals launch persona spaces; organizations and communities launch community spaces and customize them into full-featured networks — with optional branded iOS/Android apps at higher tiers.
02 · Primitive
The sole authorization primitive. Roles, permissions, verification status, and community standing all live on badges. Composable (base plate, border, banner, symbols) and portable — carried in the member's vault, not the space's database.
03 · Primitive
The platform economy. All writes cost coins; reads are free. 1 USD = 1,000 coins, permanent peg. Monthly allotments reset each cycle. Full-reserve, backed by U.S. Treasury bills.
04 · Primitive
Hardware-encrypted on-device store for identity, keys, wallet, and badges. Activated via biometrics + device attestation. AES-256-GCM inside the Secure Enclave / StrongBox. The server never sees plaintext.
05 · Primitive
Identity document with selective disclosure. Members share only what a space needs — an 18+ check, not a date of birth. Verified once, reused everywhere, never exposed as raw PII.
Date of birth never leaves the device.
06 · Primitive
Marketplace for templates, blocks, badges, and customization assets. Organizations can also sell digital and physical goods — with Shopify integration at Pro Max.
07 · Primitive
Third-party mini-apps that run inside spaces. Pro Max+ spaces can also publish branded standalone iOS/Android apps — in the App Store and Play Store, under their own name.
