01What it is

What is IzeChat?

IzeChat is a social platform. It brings together the ways people connect, gather in communities, talk to each other and trade, in one place.

What makes it different is where trust sits. Rather than leaving people to judge who they are dealing with on their own, IzeChat builds trust mechanisms into the experience itself.

IzeChat has its own product, website and brand. Zireva’s role is to build and operate the venture behind it.

02Why we built it

The opportunity behind it.

Meeting people, joining communities, talking and trading usually happen in separate places, and the trust earned in one rarely carries into the next. IzeChat is built on the idea that trust should be part of how a social platform works, not something users have to work out on their own.

03What it brings together

What IzeChat brings together.

What IzeChat brings together: Connection, Communities, Communication, Commerce, and Trust.

Communities
Groups organised around shared places, interests and purposes.
Communication
Conversations between people and within communities.
Commerce
Buying and selling between people who can see who they are dealing with.
