Many social media companies claim that their missions are to help people connect despite geographic and/or health concerns. For example, Meta’s mission statement declares that they aim to “give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together,”. However, the services for which the highest percentage of users reported having a meaningful connection with others were the direct messaging services – Text messaging (47.5%), Facetime (45.4%), and WhatsApp (42.9%).
That means that we value personal and authentic connections with someone we know. But be lack this in real and digital life
TrustMe provides a novel solution by aggregating genuine feedback from trusted friends about the person. This unique approach addresses the inherent need for real connections and authenticity, particularly in scenarios like hiring or dating. My personal experience, such as encountering investment proposals from unfamiliar LinkedIn connections with mutual ties, underscores the necessity of reliable filters. By developing TrustMe, I bring an unparalleled insight into the challenges of contemporary digital interactions and a commitment to restoring value in meaningful connections.

Throughout my 17-year career, I've been consistently headhunted, a testament to the value my former bosses and their connections see in me. I understand that not everyone can vocalize their true worth, and some excel at self-presentation, but the truth lies with those who know us well.
TrustMe aligns with my conviction that everyone has a unique place in the world, irrespective of their communication style. It opens doors for individuals to showcase their true strengths and talents, fostering a more inclusive and diverse professional and personal landscape.
My passion for writing reviews, reflected in my top 1% ranking in 2GIS in 2023, underscores the importance of my passion to share opinions, and for other people to make informed decisions. TrustMe embodies this principle, empowering individuals to make better choices about the people they work, laugh, travel, and live with. By committing to TrustMe, I am not just embracing a project; I am embarking on a journey to redefine how individuals are perceived and valued, making it my life's work to contribute to a society built on authenticity and informed decisions.
