1. Agreement to Terms
Welcome to communiti.life ("Communiti," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using our platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our services.
Effective Date: December 12, 2025
2. Description of Service
Communiti is a social media platform designed for churches, schools, nonprofits, and community organizations. Our platform provides:
- Social networking features (posts, comments, messages, reactions)
- Organization and community management tools
- Accountability relationships with age-appropriate oversight
- AI-powered content moderation and safeguarding
- Broadcast messaging for organization communications
3. Our Philosophy: Coaching, Not Catching
Communiti is a coaching platform, not a catching platform. This distinction is fundamental to understanding our approach to safety and accountability.
We help people understand where the lines of acceptable communication and healthy boundaries are, so that we—collectively—don't interact in ways that would allow predators to harm children and vulnerable individuals.
Our AI systems flag content and interactions not to identify predators, but to identify patterns of behavior that allow predators to operate. By eliminating these behavioral patterns before opportunities for harm can exist, we create an environment where:
- Prevention over punishment: We help users course-correct before harm occurs, rather than waiting to catch bad actors after the damage is done
- Education over enforcement: We teach healthy communication boundaries rather than just punishing violations
- Community protection: By eliminating the conditions that predators exploit, we protect everyone—especially children and vulnerable individuals
- Transparency over surveillance: Accountability relationships are voluntary, visible, and designed to support healthy development
Traditional platforms wait for harm then react. We believe it's better to prevent harm from ever occurring.
