Twitter.new is a trust-first social platform rebuilt on trust, civility, and transparency. It emphasizes user control and provides real-time context on content so misinformation loses reach without banning speech.
Social media incentives reward outrage over credibility. That drives misinformation, polarization, and brand safety failures. We're rebuilding the public square so users can control what they see and understand context before content spreads.
Twitter.new uses the .new top-level domain, which is designed for creating and starting things. The name reflects the mission of building a new Twitter — one focused on trust infrastructure and user empowerment.
No. Twitter.new is an independent company. It is not affiliated with X Corp, Elon Musk, or the former Twitter Inc.
Twitter.new is built by Operation Bluebird Inc., a team that includes former Twitter trademark counsel Stephen Coates, along with experienced operators in technology, law, strategy, and platform development.
Operation Bluebird is the team building Twitter.new and the underlying trust infrastructure that powers it.
Twitter.new was founded by the Operation Bluebird team, including Michael Peroff, Stephen Coates, Jeff Brooks, Rick Baker, Durk Barnhill, Kevin Raper.
Trust is a foundational principle of the platform. Twitter.new is building systems that surface evidence and context, allowing users to make their own informed decisions.
Real-time context means that when a post makes a claim, the system can surface helpful information next to it, such as source links, credibility signals, and explanations. The goal is to give users the full picture before they react or share.
Not in the traditional sense. We're not outsourcing truth to a single authority. We provide context and credibility signals and let users set their own thresholds for what they want in their feed.
We treat nuance as a first-class problem. The system is designed to evaluate claims carefully and avoid overconfident labels, especially in cases like satire, sarcasm, or ambiguous language.
When confidence is low, we prioritize transparency. We may show "insufficient confidence" rather than pretending certainty, and we bias toward adding context instead of labeling something false.
Bias prevention is an ongoing discipline, not a one-time feature. We design for transparency, allow user control, and continuously test outputs for skew and failure modes. We also aim to avoid partisan enforcement by focusing on credibility signals and manipulation patterns.
No. Filtering is personalization. Filtered content still exists and remains visible to others.
No. Our approach is reduce reach, not speech. People can post, but content that shows strong signs of manipulation or low credibility can lose distribution. Users remain in control of how strict their feed is.
They'll try. Our goal is to make manipulation expensive and ineffective by detecting patterns over time and limiting distribution when behavior indicates coordination.
Users control their own experience. They can customize filters, adjust trust thresholds, choose chronological or algorithmic feeds, and decide what content they want to see more or less of.
We use a transparent approach that includes reputable sources and makes it clear why a signal is provided. Over time, users can customize their experience with settings that control how strict their feed should be and what kinds of sources they prefer.
Most platforms focus on engagement mechanics first, then bolt on safety later. Twitter.new starts with trust as architecture: user control, transparent context, and incentives designed to discourage manipulation.
Community Notes is crowd-sourced and often slow. Twitter.new is designed to provide real-time context at the speed of a feed, with transparent signals and user-controlled thresholds.
Visit Twitter.new and enter your desired username. Requesting a handle is free.
If your requested handle complies with the Handle Reservation Disclaimer, it may be reserved. Operation Bluebird reserves the right to deny or reassign handles in accordance with its handle reservation policies.
Yes. Requesting and reserving a handle at Twitter.new is completely free.
Handle reservation policies will be announced prior to launch. Currently, users may reserve handles they intend to actively use.
If available, your handle is secured for launch. You will receive updates about timing and early access. Early reservers are recognized as Founding Members.
Reserve your handle, join the waitlist, and follow product updates. If you have relevant skills (engineering, design, community, trust and safety), reach out through our contact page.
We aim to collect the minimum required to run the platform safely and reliably. We're building with privacy in mind and will publish clear policies about data use, retention, and user controls.
The goal is to build a sustainable platform without exploiting users. We will be explicit about how data is handled and what is not sold.
We plan multiple revenue streams: brand-safe advertising, subscriptions, and licensing trust infrastructure (B2B) to organizations that need credibility at speed.
Trust infrastructure is the underlying software layer that helps evaluate credibility and provide context at scale. The same system that powers Twitter.new can be licensed to media organizations, platforms, and enterprises.
Twitter.new has been built with strategic investment and lean operations. Over 140,000 handles were reserved with zero marketing spend.
The company explores strategic options aligned with its mission. No transaction is currently announced.
After acquiring Twitter in 2022, Elon Musk rebranded the platform to X in July 2023 and publicly stated an intent to discontinue use of the Twitter brand. The Twitter name, bird logo, and related terminology were removed from the platform.
Under U.S. trademark law, if a mark is not used for three consecutive years with intent not to resume use, it may be deemed abandoned and subject to cancellation. Operation Bluebird filed a petition with the USPTO based on these grounds.
Operation Bluebird filed a petition with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to cancel Twitter trademark registrations based on abandonment. The proceeding is handled by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB).
Yes. On December 16, 2025, X Corp filed a civil lawsuit against Operation Bluebird Inc. The lawsuit and the USPTO cancellation proceeding are separate legal matters operating on different tracks.
No. The federal lawsuit concerns trademark infringement and unfair competition claims. The USPTO petition is an administrative proceeding focused on the status of trademark registrations. One does not automatically resolve the other.
No. We're building a product and an infrastructure layer that stands on its own. Legal proceedings are context, not the core of what we're building.
Twitter.new and the trust infrastructure still exist. The mission is to build trust-first social and licensable credibility technology regardless of legal outcomes.
We're rolling out in phases: development, limited beta, then broader release. We'll publish milestones and update timelines as we ship.
To rebuild the public square with trust and user empowerment.
