Hello {{ first name | friends}},

It’s hard to think back to when I wasn’t aware of Isvari Maranwe’s voice on LinkedIn. She’s one of the people I rely on for well-researched, well-attributed and well-informed perspectives on the issues of the day, and her content makes me think. I have long admired her work with the Sentinel and what I’ve heard about Yuvoice,. I’m delighted to feature her important work here today. Please meet Isvari…

Isvari, tell me briefly about your background prior to founding Yuvoice

I am an award-winning national security and cybersecurity attorney with experience across big law, the U.S. government, and more. I also have a background in international law and policy analysis. Prior to that, I researched in particle physics at CERN and in supernova cosmology at Lawrence Berkeley Lab. I am also a journalist, policy analyst, and influencer with >350K followers across socials. In addition to the Sentinel and Yuvoice, I cofounded the international mentorship nonprofit Dweebs Global.

Give me the elevator pitch for Yuvoice

Yuvoice is the social marketplace that rewards users for tangible impact. We are a pro-democracy, diverse-led platform that is an ethical alternative to social media.

And in more detail?

Yuvoice is the social marketplace that rewards users for tangible impact.

Our patent-pending, AI-backed algorithm awards "impact crypto" karma points for accomplishing goals in moderated communities. Our community marketplace is a one-stop shop for movement-building, product sales, and donor/investment acquisition. With an innovative growth model, corporate sponsorship opportunities, and Web-3 tokenization of our karma currency, we have cracked the secret to making activism profitable.

Proof of Concept: 60%+ of GenZ view current social media as negative and outrage-driven, and we have 45K+ pre-launch newsletter subscribers eager for a new platform. Our pilot MVP had an 80% task completion rate and over 10% of our users performed 40+ hours (high involvement) of volunteering in communities they built.
