eyou.app Is the Wrong Domain — Canonical Site Is eyou.social; The Submitted URL Has No Content
Score
8
Severity
Critical
Finding
Press releases and all coverage (TNW, Tech.eu, TrendingTopics, TechFundingNews) direct users to www.eyou.social as the waitlist/landing URL. The submitted URL eyou.app either redirects to eyou.social or is a placeholder with no content. The .app TLD is a natural first-guess domain for anyone who hears about 'eYou' or reads a press headline, but it is not where the actual product lives. All SEO authority from the €300K pre-seed press cycle flows to eyou.social — not eyou.app.
Recommendation
Register eyou.app if not already owned and configure a 301 permanent redirect to eyou.social. For a pre-launch social platform whose primary growth vector is word-of-mouth and social sharing, every natural domain variant must resolve to the canonical waitlist page. Also register eyou.com, eyouapp.com, and eyousocial.com as defensive registrations to prevent brand squatting ahead of the May 2026 launch.

Pre-Launch Waitlist Site — May 2026 Public Launch Is 10 Weeks Away — Site Must Drive Waitlist Sign-ups Aggressively
Score
15
Severity
High
Finding
eYou announced its €300K pre-seed and pre-launch phase on March 17, 2026 (3 days ago). Public launch is planned for May 2026 — approximately 10 weeks away. The eyou.social site is confirmed as a waitlist landing page offering 'Early Believer' profile badges and priority access. For a social network where early community scale determines long-term network effects, the 10-week pre-launch window is the most critical acquisition period in the company's existence. Every conversion point on the homepage must drive waitlist sign-ups.
Recommendation
Make waitlist sign-up the sole conversion action on the homepage. Remove all friction: no login required, email + optional username is sufficient. Add social proof counters: '[X] people already on the waitlist' — even if the number starts at zero, showing growth creates FOMO. Feature the 'Early Believer' badge prominently as a status incentive. Add a referral mechanic: 'Move up the waitlist by inviting friends.' Referral loops have driven 40-60% of early sign-ups for successful social network launches.

€300K Pre-Seed Is Micro-Round for a Social Network — Competitive Context Not Addressed on Site
Score
22
Severity
High
Finding
Building a social network — even a European, trust-focused alternative to X/Facebook — requires enormous scale to generate the network effects that make it valuable. Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads, and BeReal have each raised orders of magnitude more capital than eYou and have not displaced X or Facebook. The eyou.social landing page likely does not address this fundamental challenge directly. Sophisticated early adopters and journalists will immediately ask: how does €300K fund a social network to meaningful scale?
Recommendation
Address the scale challenge directly on the homepage: 'We're not trying to outspend Twitter. We're betting that 1 million Europeans who care about truth are worth more than 100 million passive scroll-bots.' Frame the capital efficiency as a feature: 'We built eYou on the principle that a trustworthy European platform doesn't need to spend €1B on growth — it needs the right community at launch.' This counter-narrative is stronger than pretending the capital constraint doesn't exist.

Four-LLM Fact-Checking Architecture — 'Four Models Compete in Real Time' — Most Distinctive Technical Feature Not in Hero
Score
20
Severity
High
Finding
Tech.eu coverage reveals the most distinctive technical detail: 'We use several models simultaneously. Four LLMs compete in real time to provide the most accurate fact-checking response. Because each model has its own biases, having multiple models helps reduce the risk of relying on a single perspective.' This multi-model architecture is genuinely novel in social media fact-checking — single-LLM fact-checking is subject to the model's training biases, while multi-model competition reduces that risk. This technical differentiation belongs in the homepage hero.
Recommendation
Feature the architecture in accessible language: 'When you fact-check a post, four different AI models compete to give you the most accurate answer. No single model's bias wins.' Add a visual: show four model icons converging on a consensus rating. This differentiates eYou from basic AI fact-checking tools and addresses the sceptic's question ('won't the AI just be biased too?') in the hero copy.

Finding
Search intent from the pre-seed press coverage will include: 'European alternative to Twitter/X,' 'social media with fact checking,' 'new social network Europe 2026,' 'eYou social network.' If eyou.social has no SEO-optimised content (typical of a one-page waitlist), all this organic search traffic from press coverage will dissipate. By May 2026 launch, competitors will have indexed content on these terms if eYou has not.

Social media is fundamentally broken' — Generic Problem Framing Used by Every Social Media Challenger
Score
25
Severity
Medium
Finding
CCO Grégoire Vigroux's quote: 'At eYou, we believe social media is fundamentally broken.' This problem framing — while accurate — is indistinguishable from Mastodon, Bluesky, BeReal, Threads, and every other challenger platform's positioning. 'Broken social media' is not a differentiating problem statement for eYou; it is the universal starting point for all competitors. The differentiation is the solution — specifically, the four-LLM real-time fact-checking and the algorithm transparency layer.
Recommendation
Replace the generic problem statement with eYou's specific insight: 'Fake news spreads 6x faster than facts on existing platforms — because the algorithm is designed to maximise engagement, not truth. eYou is built differently: every post can be fact-checked in seconds, and you see exactly why the algorithm shows you what it shows you.' This version names the specific mechanism (engagement-maximising algorithms), the specific impact (6x faster misinformation spread), and the specific solution (fact-checking + transparency). It is entirely distinguishable from every competitor.

Finding
Vigroux co-founded CallPoint New Europe in 2007, grew it to 1,000+ employees, and sold it to TELUS International (Canadian BPO company) in 2012 — a genuine successful exit. He also co-founded Bonapp (food waste app). This serial entrepreneurship track record is highly unusual for a pre-seed social network founder and directly addresses the 'why would this team succeed where much better-funded challengers have failed?' question. The track record is mentioned in press but likely not on the eyou.social landing page.

Feature the founding team credentials prominently: 'Built by Grégoire Vigroux — co-founder of TELUS Digital Europe (1,000+ employees, acquired 2012) and Jasseem Allybokus — former CTO of Visiperf (300+ brands, 15,800+ retail locations).' This combination of successful exit + technical platform builder is the strongest possible counter to the 'these are idealists with no business experience' scepticism that greets every social network challenger.

Severity

Finding
eYou's long-term revenue model is not clearly stated on the waitlist page. For a GDPR-first platform that explicitly refuses to sell user data or use advertising, the monetisation question is immediate: how does eYou make money? Potential business models include subscription fees (like Bluesky or Substack), enterprise API access for fact-checking services (B2B), or white-label fact-checking for publishers. Without clarity, sophisticated early adopters who care about the platform's long-term survival will be uncertain.
Recommendation
Add a brief 'Our model' section to the homepage: 'eYou is not ad-supported. We don't sell your data. We monetise through subscriptions and API partnerships with media organisations who want to embed our fact-checking technology. Your data is yours.'

The eyou.social landing page (pre-launch) likely has no social proof signals: no waitlist count, no beta tester quotes, no endorsements from journalists or European digital rights organisations, no DSA/GDPR compliance certifications. For a platform asking users to trust it with their social media data and attention, zero social proof is a conversion barrier.

eYou' Naming — Upper Case 'Y' Is a Typography Convention Not Reflected in the Domain (eyou.social)
Score
38
Severity
Low
Finding
The brand is styled as 'eYou' (capital Y) in press releases and coverage, but the domain is eyou.social (all lowercase). The uppercase Y creates a visual echo of 'You' — the core trust/user-centric brand promise. However, the domain lowercase styling means that typed URLs and social mentions may inconsistently capitalise the name. This is a minor but recurring ambiguity: is it 'eYou' or 'eyou'?
Recommendation
Establish brand standards for the name: decide whether 'eYou' (capital Y) is the canonical brand styling and enforce it consistently across: press releases, social profiles (Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram), App Store listing, and homepage hero. The domain lowercase is standard and unavoidable; the brand copy should consistently use 'eYou' to maintain the visual identity. Add a brand guidelines note: 'Our name is always written eYou — the capital Y stands for You.'

However, the domain lowercase styling means that typed URLs and social mentions may inconsistently capitalise the name. This is a minor but recurring ambiguity: is it 'eYou' or 'eyou'?
Recommendation
Establish brand standards for the name: decide whether 'eYou' (capital Y) is the canonical brand styling and enforce it consistently across: press releases, social profiles (Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram), App Store listing, and homepage hero. The domain lowercase is standard and unavoidable; the brand copy should consistently use 'eYou' to maintain the visual identity. Add a brand guidelines note: 'Our name is always written eYou — the capital Y stands for You.'
