Receipts is the GitHub for humanity’s story—a living, collaborative record of what happens in the world. Stories evolve as new facts emerge, sources are attached to the record, and every update is preserved. Journalists, eyewitnesses, experts, and everyday people can contribute what they saw and help surface stories that might otherwise be missed. The world is always writing its story. Receipts is where we keep it.
I’ve always wanted to find a better way for people to share the stories happening around them.
Too much of what matters is never reported, gets buried, or disappears before the world understands its significance. Receipts is an attempt to change that by giving eyewitnesses, independent journalists, experts, and everyday people a place to document what they see and contribute to a shared record.
I believe citizen journalism can make the world more informed, more connected, and harder to ignore.
Receipts is our first step toward building that living record of humanity.
What is your plan to pull people to use this instead of reddit, or twitter, or other alternatives?
The idea of attaching sources directly to evolving stories is genuinely useful, and I like how it feels more like a shared archive than a feed.
