Our Technology Philosophy
We build technology that respects privacy, embraces open standards, and optimizes for meaning over engagement metrics.
Privacy First
User data ownership through decentralized architecture and privacy-by-design principles.
Open Standards
Built on open protocols and standards for interoperability and longevity.
Human Values
Optimizing for meaningful connection and human flourishing over metrics.
Decentralized Infrastructure
Our flagship platform uses decentralized protocols to give users complete control over their data, with options for hosted or self-managed storage.
A Letter from Leadership
Our vision for technology that serves humanity, not the other way around.
At Lightover Inc., we believe technology should amplify human connection, not replace it. We're building a different kind of technology company—one that prioritizes user ownership, privacy, and meaningful relationships over engagement metrics and data extraction.
Our products are designed to last generations, not quarters. We use open standards and decentralized protocols because we believe your data should belong to you, not to us. We optimize for depth over scale, quality over quantity, and human flourishing over shareholder returns.
This is our commitment to building technology that respects your privacy, preserves your stories, and strengthens your connections. Technology that serves you, your family, and your community for generations to come.
Our Core Principles
The values that guide every decision we make and every product we build.
Privacy by Design
Your data belongs to you. We build privacy into every layer of our architecture, not as an afterthought.
Open Standards
We build on open protocols and standards to ensure interoperability and prevent vendor lock-in.
Human-Centered
Technology should serve human needs and relationships, not exploit them for engagement or profit.
Built to Last
We design for longevity and multi-generational use, not planned obsolescence or quarterly growth targets.
Meaningful Connection
We optimize for depth of relationship and quality of interaction over surface-level engagement metrics.
Transparent Operations
We believe in radical transparency in our operations, governance, and decision-making processes.
Redefining what a technology company can be
We're pioneering a new model for tech companies—one that puts user ownership, human values, and meaningful connection at the center of product development. Our suite of interconnected products preserves family stories, facilitates deeper communication, and brings transparency to media.
