INTRODUCING SQUID(network)
Right now, we humans navigate in the dark - bombarded with ads, random invites, shallow connections. It's chaotic and misaligned with our true intentions. Squid introduces a complete paradigm shift. In this new world our intentions will be clear and respected. The only thing we need to do is to keep our personal ontology updated. Everything else flows naturally.

HOW?
The answer lies in personal ontologies—
digital representations of ourselves that understand our preferences, intentions, and goals. These ontologies will be able to communicate directly with one another, aligning intentions and making interactions far more efficient and meaningful.
COMPARISON
Why Squid Stands Out
Platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and even OpenTable—along with their ad-driven business models—become obsolete. This means Squid has the potential to replace LinkedIn, Hinge, and countless other matchmaking or networking tools. It becomes the infrastructure layer—for connection across the human to human experience.
