Bryq vs Snowball

Write between the lines

Bryq aims to introduce a more fun and life-like messaging where the words feel like they are jumping off the page, coming out of someones mouth. A new form of expression – Bryq enables users to communicate who they really are and what they really think without consequences.

Text is a very powerful form of communication as words allow for extreme accuracy. On the other hand, text is static and lacks most of the nuances of speech like tone or rhythm.

By putting words in motion and introducing selective ephemerality, we wanted to create a new form of written communication. One where people get extended control over their content and how it is perceived. The meaning of a message comes from the words themselves but also from their pace and flow.

This is a new playground for creativity.

The easiest way to get and provide help about any topic

Snowball is an application that was created with the aim of helping the community, where you can anonymously share your concerns about any topic.
Something happened in your neighborhood? Do you need help with a specific situation? You can post it here and show the world what’s happening using evidence and possibly getting some recommendations.
No matter how delicate can be what you post, your identity is never revealed.

Snowball solves 3 problems that currently happen with all other platforms and social networks, which are:

- Disclosure of identity and personal data
- Loss of the thread and control of the publication
- Lack of localization of the problem

Some of Snowball features are:

- Anonymous profile, we only ask for your email and it’s never showed
- Locate snowballs around you or in your preferred locations
- See what’s trending in your community
- Get solutions and recommendations to your issues
- Search by specific words or by tags
- have full control of the publication and easily access previous posts of your interest

Creating a snowball serves to report situations as delicate as police abuse, domestic violence without revealing who you are, or situations of corruption. As well as day-to-day situations, such as someone loitering in the neighborhood or your pet being lost. Including humanitarian aid opportunities related to COVID-19, where you report that someone needs food, or that they are in the population at risk and cannot go shopping. Maybe you are the one who needs that help!! With a snowball, people can know your situation and give you a hand.
