Who uses Civi?

Civi provides a space for anyone who is looking to break free of their bubbles and move past difficult divides. Unlike other major social media platforms, Civi is the only platform that is built around enabling users to create meaningful and positive connections with people with different viewpoints than their own.

We aim to bring together the 83% of Americans who believe leaders should seek common ground — and the 67% who researchers call the “Exhausted Majority,” people who are fed up with polarization and ready for something different. Stanford research has shown that when people actually sit down and talk across divides, dissatisfaction drops by 18 points. That’s exactly what Civi enables. Talk about anything you want with your matches — all we ask is that you do so respectfully, with the intent to listen as well as share.
