Problem
People often need a safe outlet to share their raw thoughts, emotions, and frustrations without fear of judgment, social repercussions, or compromising their real identity. Existing social platforms encourage posturing, validation-seeking, and often expose users' personal details, leading to self-censorship and anxiety.
Solution
Rant provides a fully anonymous, gamified space where users can write posts using random friendly names, categorize posts by 12 distinct moods, and get visual mood indicators. A gamification system (experience points, level milestones, badges, leaderboards, weekly challenges) rewards authentic engagement. It includes content moderation, sentiment analysis, real-time comment and like updates, Lenis smooth scrolling, dark mode, duotone phosphor icons, and dynamic OG image generation.
