Hi Hunters. We're so excited to unveil Yorba. As you probably know, the internet is a maze of accounts, data selling, relentless marketing, and platforms that sideline user convenience and security while always fighting for your attention. Yorba aims to pave the way for a more organized, secure, and beneficial digital world. At Yorba, we're passionate about where we are at and where we are going, so join us on this journey. ---> Why does the world need Yorba? <--- You may be juggling more than 300 accounts. The potential risk of these being security vulnerabilities or conduits for data misuse by advertisers is immense. At best, they're super annoying, but at their worst, they sell your data without you knowing or get breached and never tell you. Yorba is not just another platform. It's a promise. We're committed to redefining how you navigate, manage, and declutter your online space. It's long past time to focus on online health to curve societal internet bloat and practice a bit of digital footprint minimalism. Empower yourself: seize your data, save money, and treasure your time by taking action on Yorba. ---> How will Yorba reconceive relationships on the internet? <--- Imagine an internet where you control your relationships with platforms with clarity and authority. An environment where your data is treated with respect and platforms operate transparently, or you can easily revoke their access. Corny? Maybe. Necessary? Absolutely. At Yorba, we're crafting a new digital landscape. We aim to inspire a transformative shift that champions user autonomy, privacy, and convenience by exposing the vulnerabilities and highlighting the challenges of decades of misuse. ---> What excites us about this launch? <--- This isn't just a product launch. It begins a new era of how relationships between people and platforms function online. A perspective on how to recalibrate the internet, making it more user-friendly, secure, and respectful. The journey we're embarking upon, with a phased 5-year plan, is a clarion call to all who yearn for an internet that genuinely values and safeguards user autonomy, security, choice, and privacy. Yorba aims to pioneer a transformative era where users are no longer beholden to platforms. It challenges platforms to prioritize deeper, more genuine relationships with their users, compelling them to value and uphold user needs, preferences, and security. We invite you all to join us on this exciting journey. Your insights, feedback, and participation will be instrumental in shaping the future of Yorba and, by extension, the nature of our digital relationships with platforms. If they have you on their list, we put them on yours. Chris, Nolan, and David Co-founders of the Yorba Public Benefit Corporation

@chriszeunstrom For real?! Can I finally delete all the unwanted accounts? Sounds awesome... and cool name too. Yorba, congrats!

I checked the video, it is awesome. Managing both account deletion and subscription on one dashboard is like magic! I tried similar service before but It only manages to show the monthly expenses of the subscription and I needed to add everything manually and eventually I stopped using it. Yorba will be helpful for everyone struggling with handling personal data and subscriptions.
Chris Zeunstrom
@atsuhiro_teshima So happy you like it. It’s super annoying to have to add everything manually, but we have a feeling you’ll love how easy it is to manage automatically with Yorba! Let us know if you have any questions!

@chriszeunstrom Couldn't agree more! I signed up with Yorba. The gmail connection feature is great. I will explore more!
Chris Zeunstrom
@atsuhiro_teshima Yeah, it's the first thing most people do: connect their inbox and unsubscribe from all the trash quickly—a reverse CRM.

Looks awesome. Congratulations on the launch team ♥️🦄
Chris Zeunstrom
@orchyan Thanks for the kind words! A labor of love and phase one of what's to come.
Rami
This is actually a real problem. I have no idea how many accounts I have created without searching through my personal email and my Google Chrome password manager.
Chris Zeunstrom
@kingromstar Right?! Some of our good friends are sitting right around 400 accounts. It would be wild to try and track all that manually!
Julia Doronina
Congratulations on the launch! Sounds very useful.
Chris Zeunstrom

Chris Zeunstrom
@tanjirrahman Thank you so much for your kind words and support!

Congratulations @chriszeunstrom on the launch of Yorba! This product makes us proud by allowing us to reduce our digital footprint one step at a time. Let's all take advantage of this great opportunity and start shaping a more secure future!
Chris Zeunstrom
@german_merlo1 It's alarming how much baggage and clutter from the web2 era is linked to our personal identifiers. This awareness is crucial for addressing the problem effectively.

@chriszeunstrom Just spotted your product on Product Hunt – major congrats on the launch! 🚀 Seriously, a one-stop-shop for internet insights? Quick Q: What's the most surprising data revelation you've seen so far? 🤔📊
Chris Zeunstrom
@aashish_peepra Glad you found us. For sure, the number of accounts people have accrued over the last 2-3 decades with their emails. It's trending far above even the 400-mark average for members of Yorba.
Stéphane Turquay
Love the idea as it covers many problems we all face nowadays mostly inbox full of newsletters / marking campaigns that we are not interested in. Despite unsubscribing we still get emails.
Chris Zeunstrom
@stephane_turquay No matter how hard you try to manage your mailing lists, you'll always need to keep monitoring them and remove entries automatically. Companies often divide their email lists into several segments. So, when you unsubscribe from one part of a company's list, you may still be subscribed to other segments. As a result, you'll continue receiving emails even after you think you've unsubscribed. Tools like Yorba can help by grouping all these different segments together, allowing for more efficient management of your subscriptions.
Stéphane Turquay
@chriszeunstrom Fair enough, thanks for the explanations, I'll give Yorba a try 🚀
