The Empathy Gap.
In a world more connected than ever, we often feel more distant. We default to superficial interactions and scroll past opportunities for genuine understanding. At Synapse.d, we believe this is a design problem, and we're working to find a design solution.
Our Approach: Data-Driven Empathy.
We are skeptical idealists. We blend visionary goals with rigorous, evidence-based methods to create meaningful change.
Putting Theory into Practice.

Project 01: Synapse.d Challenges
Our first initiative is a mobile app that uses research-backed prompts to help people skip the small talk and start real conversations in everyday spaces.

Project 02: Pump Up Postcards
Celebrate each victory in your life and the lives of your friends. Share what awesome thing you did, get a postcard each month reminding you how incredible you are.
