Built for humans. Not bots.
Two windows. That's it.
Morning and evening, 30 minutes each. Your feed ends — and so does the urge to keep scrolling.
Everything disappears
Posts expire. Messages expire. Even your data expires. Less digital clutter, less carbon.
Actually private
End-to-end encrypted messaging. No data selling. No AI training on your content. Ever.
When the product is free,
you're the product.
We charge $7/month. No ads. No data selling. Ever.
Just five apps, built with care.
A day on Ephemeral
Social media redesigned around your wellbeing
Two windowed sessions
Pick your window — morning or evening — and get 30 minutes of feed time.
Connect with intention
A finite feed that ends. Events, messages, and posts from people you care about.
Leave satisfied
A clear ending. No guilt, no "one more scroll." See you next window.
One price. No tricks.
Your subscription pays to use and maintain the app features.
Simple. Straightforward. Nothing dystopian about it.
Monthly
Annual
You might be wondering
"Free" apps make money by selling your attention to advertisers and your data to brokers. You're not the customer—you're the product. We charge a fair subscription so our only job is making something you actually love, not maximizing your screen time.
We're launching with invite-only access in specific communities to build density. You'll be able to invite friends, and Events let you include people who don't have accounts yet. Network effects start in tight communities, not broad audiences.
You choose two 30-minute windows—one during the day, one in the evening. During these windows, you can scroll your feed, post content, and engage. Outside windows, you still have full access to Messages, Events, and Notes. No hard lockouts for essential communication.
Delete-by-default encourages authentic sharing and reduces digital clutter (and data center carbon emissions). Anything you want to keep, just save to Notes before it expires. Saved content stays as long as you want it.
Messages are end-to-end encrypted—we mathematically cannot read them. We don't sell data, don't show ads, and don't train AI on your content. When content deletes, it's truly gone from our servers.
Ephemeral is human-only. We use device attestation to verify content comes from real humans, not AI. Your posts and messages will never be used to train AI models. This is a space for genuine human connection.
