Niche social network export tool

Build a service that archives and exports user data from closed platforms. For users worried about platform risk.

Why now

New social networks emerge and die quickly, leaving users without their histories.

Who for
Active social media users
Business model
Subscription for ongoing backups
Effort
A few weeks

People invest time in new social platforms but have no way to preserve their content if the service shuts down.

A tool that regularly archives posts, connections, and media from newer networks via their APIs.

Privacy-conscious users would pay a subscription. Journalists might need one-time exports.

First version could focus on a single API-compatible platform.

Risk: API changes could break functionality without warning.
