Public conversation,
anchored to the web
Skysquare overlays Bluesky discourse directly onto the source material across the open web—turning static pages into living, contextual documents.
Launching July 4, 2026

Built for the open web, not the attention economy


Getting tired of doomscrolling through noise and losing the context that actually matters?
As platforms optimize for advertising and engagement, it’s getting harder and harder to find valuable commentary in your social feeds. Platforms reward endless motion, not depth of attention. Headlines get consumed, reacted to, and discarded—often without anyone actually reading the text. Skysquare slows the experience down by keeping the source in view—so engagement starts with reading and thinking, not scrolling.
Today’s Social Feeds…
Conversation drifts away from the source
Commentary circulates independently of the material it’s reacting to.
Headlines stand in for understanding
Likes, reposts, and reactions accumulate without sustained reading.
Feeds fragment discourse into silos
What you see depends on alignment, not relevance.
Speed is rewarded over attention
Endless motion replaces depth, patience, and reflection.
Context collapses into noise
Disagreement becomes performative once shared reference disappears.
With Skysquare
Conversation stays anchored to the source
Discussion remains visibly tied to the text being referenced.
Reading comes before reaction
Engagement starts with the material itself, not just its headline.
Multiple perspectives coexist in context
Different interpretations appear side by side on the same page.
Attention slows the experience down
Meaning has time to land before the conversation moves on.
Context restores clarity
Disagreement becomes legible when everyone can see what’s being discussed.

How Skysquare works
Skysquare lets conversation unfold alongside the text itself, where context is easier to follow and evaluate. By connecting public Bluesky discourse directly to the pages being discussed, Skysquare keeps conversation anchored to its sources and visible where ideas originate.

See the conversation through people you trust
Instead of pulling from the entire network, Skysquare lets you surface quotes from your own lists—so you can view commentary filtered by the people you already value.
That means:
Less noise from accounts you don’t follow
More insight from writers, researchers, and voices you already trust
A reading experience shaped by judgment, not algorithms

Discover new voices through shared interests
Skysquare also helps you find new people worth following—based on what they’re saying about the content you already care about.
Instead of discovering accounts in isolation, you discover them:
In direct relation to specific articles and ideas
Through thoughtful engagement, not viral reach
In context, where relevance is immediately clear
Public launch in . . .
Skysquare will officially launch on July 4, 2026—the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. A reminder that democratic life begins with shared texts, depends on public reasoning, and endures through independent judgment.
Better reading. Clearer context. Toward a more grounded public conversation.
