El Puente
One person asking strangers $0.99/month. Nothing in return.
El Puente is a real social experiment. One person asking strangers for $0.99/month. Nothing in return. The hypothesis: what's insignificant to you can be vital to someone else, multiplied by enough people. The nothing of many = the everything of one. No tricks. Full transparency. Every dollar documented. Anonymous by design. This could only exist now. The technology is here. The experiment is live.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
I'll be completely honest: El Puente is me asking strangers for $0.99/month. You get nothing back. I get everything.
I built this because I believe there's an untested question about human nature: can generosity exist at scale without obligation, without reward, without even knowing each other? At $0.99/month the cost is so small that the only reason not to do it is indifference, not economics.
Built it solo, with Replit, no funding, no team. The app is anonymous by design - no email, no name, just a double-click on the side of your iPhone and you're a node in the network.
I'm not here to sell you anything. I'm here to find out if the thesis is true. Every upvote and every download helps prove it.
Would love to hear what you think. 🌉
