🚀 Kickstarter — Live Now

Help complete the creator platform
that actually respects you.

Weavid is privacy-first, creator-controlled, and EU-hosted. The foundation is built and running in closed alpha. This campaign funds the features that complete it — and delivers them to backers first.

Current State

What's built and running.

The foundation is solid. These features are live in alpha today — they're the base everything else is built on.

🎬
Short-form video feed with category-based discovery

Upload, browse, and discover content across categories. Feed is live and running with real content.

🔒
End-to-end encrypted messaging — keys stay on your device

Messaging foundations are in place. Encryption keys are generated on your device. Weavid cannot read your private messages.

🌐
Community systems — public, private, invite-only, broadcast

Community structure is live. Four community types with access controls and member management foundations.

📦
Basic video upload, playback, and content creation pipeline

Full upload → process → playback flow is working. The content pipeline handles video compression, storage, and delivery.

🛡️
Zero tracking, minimal data collection, opt-in only — baked in from day one

No tracking systems, no behavioral profiling. Every optional feature is off by default. You choose what to enable.

What This Campaign Builds

Five specific features. Delivered to backers as they ship.

Kickstarter funds the completion of Weavid — turning a working foundation into a full platform. Backers get access to each feature as it's built.

🎨 Creator Studio

Timeline editing, filters, captions, publishing tools, and a stats dashboard so creators understand how their content performs.

🌐 Community Completion

Thread systems, moderation tools, member management, and broadcast channels — fully built out.

💬 Messaging Enhancements

Full conversation UX, media sharing, message retention controls, and read receipts.

🔍 Profile & Discovery

Search, creator pages, and follower analytics so creators understand their audience.

🚀 Public Beta Launch

The infrastructure capacity and security hardening needed to open Weavid to everyone. This is the milestone that completes the campaign — and opens the platform.

No investors. No board. No external control. Backers fund specific features and receive access to them as they're built.

Privacy

Privacy is the architecture, not a checkbox.

🔑

Keys on your device

Encryption keys are generated on your device and stay under your control. Weavid does not have access to the keys used to decrypt your private messages.

🚫

Off by default

Every optional feature starts disabled. You choose what to enable — we never switch it on for you.

📦

Minimal data footprint

We store only what's required to run the platform. No location. No contact access. No tracking URLs.

🇪🇺

GDPR-native infrastructure

Hosted in Europe on EU infrastructure built for strong data sovereignty. European data compliance from day one — not retrofitted.

This is not "privacy marketing." It's enforced by design.

Roadmap

Four milestones. Clear deliverables at each one.

Every milestone has a concrete outcome for backers — not just internal progress. Updates posted here on Kickstarter at each stage. If anything changes, backers hear it first.

About

No investors. No board. Just a founder who's tired of exploitative platforms.

Hi, I'm Erik — founder of Weavid LLC. I built this because I got tired of watching creators get surveilled and exploited by platforms that treat users as products. Weavid is self-funded, EU-hosted, and built to actually respect the people using it. The foundation is running in alpha with early testers. This campaign funds the features that complete it — and delivers them to backers as they ship.

FAQ

Straight answers.

What does "creator-controlled" mean?

Your content belongs to you — not Weavid. You control what you post, who sees it, and what happens to it. We don't claim license rights to monetise your work, and you can delete your account and data at any time.

What does Kickstarter funding actually build?

Five specific features: Creator Studio (editing, publishing, analytics), community completion (threads, moderation, member management), messaging enhancements (full UX, media, retention), profile and discovery, and public beta infrastructure. Each has defined milestones and backer deliverables.

Is this a finished app or a concept?

Neither. The foundation is built and running in closed alpha on iOS and Android — you can install it, log in, and use it today. But it's not finished. The campaign funds the specific features that complete it.

Will there be ads?

Weavid has no plans to run ads. The platform is funded by subscriptions and creator tools — not by tracking users or selling their data.

What platforms does it support?

iOS and Android. Both in active development with a shared codebase.

When does the campaign start and end?

The campaign is live now and runs for 30 days, closing in May 2026. Kickstarter only charges backers if the campaign reaches its funding goal.
