sociality: engagement transparency for creators

About

## What it does

Creators have no honest way to see whether their engagement on social
platforms is real. Counts are opaque, reach is unverifiable, and no tool gives
you a transparent record of what you actually did.

sociality is a Chrome extension for creators on Instagram and TikTok. It
observes your real engagement (the likes and comments you make manually) and
connects the profiles you own, then surfaces a verified record in a separate
dashboard. You see exactly what you did, confirmed by an independent
server-side check.

Engagement verification is live on Instagram and TikTok today, with more
platforms on the way.

The value commitment is transparency, not automation: no posting on your
behalf, no following, no scraping, no bot behavior. Purely a way to measure your
own activity, with explicit consent every step of the way.

## How it works

1. Install sociality and accept the in-extension consent screen. The extension
   does nothing until you give explicit permission.
2. Connect your platforms: visit your own profile on Instagram or TikTok and
   sociality reads it to link your verified record to your account. No
   passwords, no API logins.
3. Use your platforms normally. When you like or comment on an Instagram or
   TikTok post, the extension detects that action from the platform's own
   like/comment request and reports it to sociality for server-side
   verification.
4. Open the sociality dashboard to see a verified record of your genuine
   engagement: real reach, not vanity counts.

## What it does NOT do

- It does NOT post on your behalf, comment on your behalf, like on your
  behalf, or take any action without you taking it manually yourself.
- It does NOT read your DMs, your full feed, or any post outside the ones you
  interact with.
- It does NOT browse for you, follow accounts on your behalf, or operate while
  you are not actively using a supported platform.
- It does NOT collect data from any website other than the supported platforms
  (www.instagram.com, www.tiktok.com), and only after you have explicitly
  consented.
- It does NOT sell your data, share with advertisers, or use it for purposes
  other than verifying your own engagement record.
- It does NOT operate without your explicit, recorded consent. You can
  disconnect at any time from the extension settings.
