Wizdem is a social platform by community builders for community builders.
We are obsessed with building an ever-growing ecosystem where anybody can find their own tribes. We believe in the power of communities to change the world and make a positive impact, and that’s why we help our users and their communities to engage with causes they love.
We are unrepentant optimists. But we acknowledge there are tons of challenges we face. One that is really important for us is the role of social platforms in the IRL communities.
We work hard to ensure wizdem is a positive actor for the participative democracies, and not something hindering them.
We believe that as long as we pursue human-centric communities we will be able to protect Wizdem and our users from bad practices and vices we’ve seen grow in other platforms. Of course, this doesn’t mean we won’t err. We will: but we are committed to correct our shortcomings and decide always guided by our values:

“Do not think or act dishonesty and never harbor sinister designs” -Musashi Miyamoto We always expect the best from our peers and from the world. We also make a daily effort to be worthy of trust: we say what we think and we do what we say. |

“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival” -C.S. Lewis Communities are not a place to do networking, but to build relationships. We seek for the fulfillment of our peers, users and clients, and we build a space to gather around based on common interests and shared pursue of good. |

“Justice is the same as rectitude, for it is a habit which rectifies the deed and the will” -Thomas Aquinas We recognize we are all different and we cherish that diversity, that’s why we thrive to celebrate the different and give person one what they deserve, accordingly to their nature (dignity) or a stablished agreement. |

“Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man” --Benjamin Franklin We are rational beings and we can self-regulate and self-discipline to make good choices on our day to day. We build to nurture the freedom of our users, not to regulate them. (But we have zero tolerance against those who violate our community guidelines or make a real damage to. |

“It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness” -Seneca We do good things and we do them good, even when we do not feel confident, or we think we lack capabilities. We know that transforming the world requires bravery and a whit of idealism. |

“Everything looks nonsensical before it works” -Burt Rutan We are able to know the reality and to make adequate judgments about it. If we do not know something we can propose an hypothesis, but if we discover out hypothesis is false, we move on fast and purposefully. |
Wizdem is a social platform by community builders for community builders. We reimagined how digital communities exist in this remote-first, creator-centric, communication-based new era!
Wizdem is better for community builders: bring here your audience or communities and engage with them You can have the best of wizdem if you are: an individual creator, an organization, a business/startup or a public institution that
We recommend using Wizdem for collaboration and engagement with your community. It is not about management (although you’ll have tools for that, like our project manager), it is about your members connecting and creating value by themselves. For example, engage with your audience after a webinar in a Q&A session on a thread inside your community!
As for today Wizdem web app runs in any browser, desktop or mobile. We recommend using Google Chrome. Mobile apps are on their way.
People without a Wizdem account can engage with you on projects, events, meetings, brainstorms, and communities if they are public or if they have a guest link.
Some features may be available only for registered users (for example, publishing on your communities or participating on a private project).
Wizdem is unlimited: bring as many members and build as many communities as you wish. When we release the premium tier you won’t experience a reduction of this, instead we will bring more value to the table.
It’s coming soon – stay tuned.
We believe in the power of collaboration. And although some of our users shifted from slack to Wizdem, we want to help the community builders to work on their own terms: if your management team is on slack, stay connected!
Organizations and businesses can monetize their work directly on their Wizdem profile: you can have members of your account and we earn an average 7% of fees. We also process your payment fees thanks to our integration with Stripe.
Also, you can monetize your events directly from Wizdem: create one and sell the tickets. We earn a 1.5% fee + payment fees.
Finally (and more important!) your communities can be monetized just like a normal profile. Maybe your audience don’t want to become a member of your “entire brand” but want to be members of a special community, leverage that!
If you want to give special badges to a post or Boost a project, community, event, etc. we have a token system to do that.
Instead of paying for publicity, our users can buy tokens and use them to promote the content and profiles they love!
We are planning a way to use the tokens to give tips during live events on our platform - stay tuned!
Nada, zero, naught! For real, our promise is to maintain Wizdem free for ever for everyone.
We will announcing our premium plan in the near future.
We are a fully remote team based on Mexico, but open to talent from all over the universe.
Privacy and security are top priorities for us at Around. We stay up to date with the latest security measures and take great care to ensure your data is safe at all times. You can see our policies HERE.
