About Everstory
Mission
Everstory exists to offer the world's first free voice and visual encyclopedia app for pre-readers.
Vision
We envision a future in which every pre-reader on Earth can freely, safely, and independently:
1) ask, access, and understand evidence-based, neutral-point-of-view answers to their questions,
2) use their voice and visuals to explore their curiosity,
3) “rabbit-hole” while browsing information, starting with their interests and continuing to expand their learning with pertinent, connected information,
4) gain, build, and connect geographic and historical associations with their interests, &
5) share what they are asking, searching, exploring, and learning with others.
For future generations, Everstory envisions increased cross-cultural empathy, common awareness and understanding, and peaceful global collaboration.
Core Values
Access – Every person is curious. Now is the best time to learn. Access makes learning happen.
Inclusion – Every person has knowledge to contribute and knowledge to learn. Inclusive design enriches the collection and exchange of knowledge.
Autonomy – Every person has their own unique interests, ways of pursuing learning, and ways of navigating how they discover, intake, analyze, process, connect, and share information. Offering access to a diverse variety of learning opportunities which individuals can control independently celebrates their autonomy.
Neutral-Point-of-View - A balance of evidence and objectivity is both important and potent.
Accuracy - Every person deserves the opportunity to access trustworthy information. Rigorous content contribution standards including evidence-based, peer-reviewed research sources provide strong foundations for trustworthy content in context.
Empathy – Every person is part of a shared human narrative and heritage; considering others’ experiences supports collective learning and collective intelligence.
