there's a renewed interest in a more contextual, associative, networked future for the internet. one that breaks us from restrictive digital gardens. one that's healthier, freer and safer. a lot of that hinges on how we express ourselves online & how what we express is curated.
we're on a mission to build a creative layer on the internet.
a layer that restores our open digital gardens. a layer where content isn't ephemeral, but appreciates over time as context and connections are added. a layer that creates new opportunities for you and recognizes creative labor. a layer that helps us get to a more serendipitous web.
that's why we're building koodos, and we'd love your help.
we started with a product that lets users add emotional context as indexes or tags to music. we have bold ambitions & it's still day 1.

you're a scrappy generalist that loves building creative products. you're proactive. you're interested in knowledge graphs and great ux. you have an eye for good design. you are comfortable iterating very quickly. you value diversity (in every meaning of the word). you are collaborative and naturally lead without authority. 👉👈
