"The app will operate as 100% invite-only with the community deciding who gets on and who stays on."

“'In a world where online platforms can feel like loud, unregulated free-for-alls, R.M. Easterly is building something radically different: a social media platform rooted in intentionality, community, and safety.”

Anticipation is building, especially with rumors swirling around a global superstar who may be one of the first celebrity invites to join Byio. This speculation has ignited excitement for an exclusive music debut planned specifically for the platform, hinting at the dynamic content that the platform will host.

"The message is clear: this platform is not only an alternative but a correction. Brands and individuals who ignore this moment may miss the chance to connect with communities that will set the tone for where digital culture heads next."

“'This is not just for the Black community, but for allies and supporters everywhere who believe in fairness, recognition, and putting power back into the hands of users.'”

"Never before has a platform of this scale been created by Black Women who have lived the very experiences they are building against: discrimination, censorship, stolen content, and unfair earnings."
