Polite is your personal corner on the web to organize your content and your culture.
Everything you own, everything you've subscribed to, everything you are interested in should be easily accessible.
But currently, we're forced to juggle between incompatible content, services, and accounts. Polite has a different idea.
We give you access to what matters to you in one place, away from the noise and the limitations imposed by Big Tech. No ads, tracking, and outside influence.
Two products and the power of the Slow Web.
Unlock what you own inside the big platforms and create the right environment to enjoy your content or curate your favorites inspiration sources.

Freedom as a Service.
We believe neutral interfaces, freed of algorithms, are the only way to experience digital freedom and creative autonomy. Discover a better way to access your personal Internet.
A platform with Good Manners.
Private by design
In the age where everything has to be social, we wanted to create a product designed for you and just for you.
Non-Intrusive
We don't believe that software should take over. Our most powerful features are designed to work for you and not the opposite.
Distraction-free
We took great care to make our interface as neutral as possible because we want the focus to be on your content, not on our product.
Data portability
Our products facilitate moving content between services and use open formats whenever it's possible.
Open Web
All our products work as desktop and mobile web apps. You can view all your content inside your browser. No additional software is needed.
Subscription-only
It is the only model that guarantees our mutual independence. There's no ads, no targeting, no lock-in. When you leave, your account is deleted, period.
