Next Sosyal is a Türkiye-based, local and national social media platform developed by Teknofest entrepreneurs. It allows users to share text, images, videos and polls, focusing on topics like news, technology, lifestyle and current events, aiming to offer a free and interactive social media experience.
Developed by the Teknofest generation, Next Sosyal announced on Aug. 16 that it had surpassed 1 million users, and its user base continues to grow every day.
The platform is free from ads and algorithmic censorship, with posts displayed in chronological order to ensure content equality and visibility. It also integrates a Turkish-focused AI model called T3 AI, which quickly responds to tagged posts and filters inappropriate content such as explicit material or hate speech.
