About Covey
Our vision
To create a safe, independent and decentralised platform where citizens can help each other in everyday life, verified through national electronic identification.
Covey (formerly Tillsammans) is a civic initiative that lets you quickly and safely coordinate everyday safety -- such as walking home together in the evening.
Why Covey?
You are not the product
Unlike social media platforms that make money by selling your attention to advertisers, Covey makes no money. Our sole purpose is to help you get assistance or help someone else.
Verified identity
By using BankID, we eliminate troll accounts and fraud. You know that the person you interact with is who they claim to be.
Open source
Our code is open for review. Anyone can see how we handle data. There are no hidden algorithms controlling what you see.
Non-profit
Covey is not owned by venture capitalists. We are governed by our users and our mission: social good, not economic growth.
