Features

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

A focused toolkit for building a profile you're proud to share — without the noise of traditional social networks.

  • Markdown profiles

    Your entire profile is a living Markdown document — headings, lists, code blocks, images, and links, rendered beautifully and safely.

  • Explore & discover

    Browse latest and popular profiles, or search by username, name, company, and location. Find voices worth following.

  • Friends, not followers

    Send friend requests and build a real graph of people you know — not just one-way follows in an endless scroll.

  • Multi-profile dashboard

    Manage multiple profiles from one account. Perfect for side projects, personas, or keeping work and play separate.

  • Connect anywhere

    Generate a QR code for your profile. Share at events, on slides, or in person — no awkward link hunting.

  • Real-time by default

    Follower counts, friend requests, and profile updates sync instantly. Powered by Convex, built for the live web.

How it works

Three steps to your corner of the web

  1. 01

    Create your profile

    Sign up in seconds with Clerk. Pick a username and you're live at qside.io/yourname.

  2. 02

    Write in Markdown

    Open the live editor, craft your story, and preview changes instantly before you publish.

  3. 03

    Share your link

    Send your URL, drop your QR code, or let people find you on Explore. That's it — no feed required.

Built different

Not another feed. A profile platform.

  • No infinite scroll — visit a profile, read it, leave refreshed.
  • No engagement bait — your Markdown is the whole story.
  • No black-box ranking — discover people through search and Explore.
  • Real friendships — mutual connections, not vanity metrics.

Your profile. Your rules. Your Markdown.

Join a growing community of builders, designers, and creators who chose intention over interruption.
