The [first time](https://socra.com/s/AZL9ZVwcmysEHGxJaZdfcQ) I wrote in this newsletter, I discussed the lack of an intuitive and interactive platform that can guide people from point A to point B to achieve their goals—much like how Google Maps provides directions to your desired location. Since I began developing this software for the world, I have dedicated myself to it day and night. There is nothing more fulfilling for me than this endeavor, as I have discovered my life purpose, and I am confident that this will improve millions of lives.
Imagine having an app that tells you each day what you need to accomplish and how those actions impact the bigger picture of your life. This app would guide you step-by-step in creating the best path to reach your goals and inform you about the main roadblocks you might encounter, along with strategies to overcome them. You could collaborate with people worldwide to achieve a common goal and share your journey if you wish—after all, watching and cheering for others in pursuit of their dreams is incredibly inspiring. Moreover, if you have figured out the best way to accomplish something, you could help millions of others. That’s precisely what we are building socra for.
Additionally, when you need it, socra will connect you to service providers who can accelerate your success. These service providers can create your plan and provide real-time updates on their actions through our API. We will also offer automation features to enhance your productivity, such as automating appointment creation based on your calendar and preferences.
In 2020, I took a break from social networks for an entire year. This challenge was necessary, as social media had a negative impact on my life and mental health. I left because I struggled to control my usage, often mindlessly scrolling for hours—time that could have been spent living my life. It’s not surprising; many of you have likely encountered the same issue. These platforms are designed to keep you engaged for as long as possible because they monetize your attention through advertisements. Socra, however, will prioritize productivity; we will never display ads or clutter our platform in any way.
We believe that we are most effective in achieving our goals when we unite. A supportive community can help you stay motivated and consistent. That’s why socra is a social network centered around purpose-driven communities. Our mission is to build an AI that will show you the best path to reach your goals, and the more users we attract, the smarter our platform will become. If you would like to support us, please share this newsletter with your friends.
[Original: September 11, 2022](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/new-social-network-platform-coming-eduarda-ferreira/)On November 19, 2024, Eduarda Ferreira reflected on the inception of socra, an innovative interactive platform aimed at goal setting and enhancing productivity. Inspired by the simplicity of Google Maps, Eduarda envisioned an app that guides users step-by-step toward their life goals while identifying potential roadblocks and offering strategies to overcome them.
Socra aims to foster a supportive community where users can collaborate globally, share their journeys, and inspire one another. The platform will connect users with service providers to streamline their paths to success and integrate automation features to boost productivity, ensuring a clutter-free experience without advertisements.
Eduarda's journey began after a year-long hiatus from social media, during which she recognized the detrimental effects on her mental health. This experience fueled her desire to create a tool that prioritizes well-being and productivity, emphasizing the power of community in achieving personal goals.
As the development of socra continues, its mission remains clear: to harness AI in guiding individuals toward their aspirations, enhancing the platform's effectiveness with each new user. The project reflects Eduarda's dedication to improving lives and fostering a purposeful community focused on mental health and support through software development and automation.
In summary, socra represents a convergence of technology and community aimed at transforming the goal-setting process into a collaborative and supportive journey.By Eduarda Ferreira
