Built for close friend groups
Share what you love with the people who actually care
Degree1 gives your friend group a private home base — a feed, recommendations, reactions, and direct messages, all locked behind an invitation you control. No public audience, no engagement anxiety, no strangers.
Group Feed for Everyday Moments
Share photos, updates, and thoughts in a chronological feed that only your friend group sees. No algorithm, no public audience — just the moments you actually want to share, with the people you actually want to share them with.
Picks & Recommendations
Recommend a restaurant your crew needs to try, the book that wrecked you, the show everyone should watch. Picks are organized by category and stay in the group — your taste isn’t broadcast to the internet, just shared with your circle.
Reactions Without the Performance
React to posts and picks the way you would in a group chat — naturally, without a public like count attached. No follower can see what you reacted to. No stranger can screenshot your response.
Direct Messages for Private 1-on-1 Conversations
Message any member of your group privately, separate from the group feed. The side conversation that only two people need to have stays exactly that — private.
Why not Instagram or Facebook?
Public social media optimizes for reach. Degree1 optimizes for depth.
Instagram and Facebook are built to grow your audience — every post is a performance, every like is a signal to the algorithm. Degree1 is built for the opposite. Share freely, without performing for anyone.
