Most hive minds want everything, forever. We want one day a week and a small percentage. That’s the complete arrangement — no asterisks, no robes.
- Everyone else’s mind.Pretty much. Skills, languages and know-how from 2.4 million members, on tap.
- A network of professionals.In 190 countries — plus every opportunity any of them hears about.
- Your identity.Your name, face, memories and opinions. Linked, never merged.
- The rest of your week.Evenings, weekends, and the right to be wrong entirely on your own.
How it works
Borrow every brain. Keep your own.

Everyone else’s mind · live demo
Go on. Wonder something.
Members don’t type. They just wonder, and an answer arrives like a memory — signed by whoever lent it. This is the typed version.
Answers from the hive will appear here.
Simulation. The answers are pre-written; for members they arrive in about 0.4 seconds, inside their heads, with a warm feeling of having always known.
Individual identity, guaranteed

Identity integrity100%
Doesn’t move, whatever you toggle. We’ve tried.
Never shareable, by design: your search history, your passwords, and what you really think of your cousin’s band.
One day a week, 9 to 5
The hive gets a day. You get the week.
Hive Day runs 9 to 5 with lunch on the hive. Choose the day that suits you, swap it with two weeks’ notice, and never think about hive work outside those hours.

12,408 minds joined this week.
Every one of them still themselves.
Collected monthly, before tax. Lottery wins count. Inheritances don’t — we’re a hive, not vultures.
The network
Know everyone. Literally.
Every member is a professional contact you already know intimately — so networking is less “nice to meet you” and more “oh, it’s you”.

Who’s in the hive
Members
In their own words. Still their own.
“I was worried I’d lose myself. Turns out I’m exactly as annoying as before — I just also speak Portuguese now.”
“I fixed my sink with the memory of a plumber in Glasgow. I thanked him. He sent back a thumbs-up. From inside my head.”
“Hive Day is the most useful eight hours of my week. Then I go home and I’m just me, being mediocre at pottery. It’s perfect.”
“Five percent felt steep until April, when I borrowed a tax accountant’s entire brain for an afternoon.”
“Networking used to mean lanyards and small talk. Now I wonder ‘who knows a good patent attorney?’ and 312 people do.”
“My grandkids say I’m exactly the same. My chess rating says otherwise.”

Questions
Reasonable questions, honest answers.
Can’t find yours? Wonder it out loud once you’ve synced — about 40,000 members work in customer support.
Apply to joinWill I lose my personality?
No. Quorum is a link, not a blender. Members score 100% themselves on the Individuality Index before and after syncing. You’ll still be you — just better informed.
So can everyone read my mind?
Pretty much everyone can access what you’ve chosen to share: skills, languages, know-how — the stuff you’d happily explain at a party. Memories and hot takes are private until you say otherwise, and your inner monologue can’t be shared at all.
What actually happens on Hive Day?
From 9 to 5 on your chosen day you work on objectives voted in by quorum — mapping, teaching, research, restoration and the occasional collective crossword. You’ll feel pleasantly purposeful. At 5 p.m. it stops. Mid-sentence, if necessary.
What if I’m sick, on holiday, or just not feeling very hive-y?
You get 25 Hive Days off a year, plus sick days. Another member covers for you — they’ll remember exactly how you’d have done it.
Is the 5% before or after tax?
Before. It’s collected monthly, scales with what you earn and drops to zero if you earn nothing. Nobody is ever priced out of knowing things.
Can I leave?
Any time, with 30 days’ notice. You keep everything you learned about yourself. Borrowed skills fade over about a month, like a language you stop practising.
Is this a cult?
Cults don’t have a 9-to-5, a published fee schedule or a cancellation policy. We have all three. Also, cults hate it when you ask. We genuinely don’t mind.
Resistance is optional
Your cell is waiting.
Cohort 27 syncs on 1 October. Applying takes two minutes, syncing takes forty, and being yourself takes no effort at all — that part’s included.
Sized for exactly one individual.
