At Plexus, we’re making a religion for individuals.

Highly individual young adults, especially post-college in big cities, often reject existing communities (religions, political parties, small towns, colleges, workplaces) which ask you to conform in order to belong.

Plexus offers the opposite: a radically inclusive online space that helps members belong not in spite, but because, of idiosyncrasy.

At Plexus’ core is Voices: a more intentional alternative to podcasts/music. Whatever’s on your mind, Voices is an app that generates a custom playlist, instantly, of real contactable people speaking about it. We’ve never seen technology inspired faith between strangers like Voices.
