Epic problem that Heimo is solving
There are billions of stories that are never told. Stories that are too hard to tell or there is no-one who would listen or understand. Shame and stigma are huge problems causing mental health issues: 30% of the population worldwide have some form of mental disorder. 66% of those people receive no treatment
And there is no excisting social media, where you could truly open up your mind. Until now.
What is Heimo
Heimo is an online community for life challenges, a peer-to-peer social platform where people help each other. It is the anonymous and safe online community for untellable stories, that you are not able tell anywhere else.
Heimo address problems that some other social networks have created: bullying, hate speech, causing stigma and fear what others think.
Heimo is a safe place to share your inner thoughts and get support from others who have experienced the same. You are no longer alone!
Most of Heimo’s users come from South East Asia at the moment. We have piloted Heimo in different areas and already tens of thousands of Filipinos has used Heimo and shared their untellable stories.
