Social media is broken, and a new Dubai-based social media app called SureSpace wants to fix it.
It promises no algorithms, no trolls, no doomscrolling. Just real, safe connections—both personal and professional. And it launches on 25 September across the UAE.
Here’s what makes SureSpace different, and why it might just be the anti-social media platform people have been waiting for.
A safe alternative to toxic social media
SureSpace was built with one goal: to get people off the toxic scroll.
- 46% of millennials and 53% of Gen Z doomscroll regularly
- Doomscrolling links to a 29% drop in life satisfaction
- Mental health suffers from endless, harmful content
The app removes the addictive feeds, replaces them with curated, algorithm-free spaces, and puts people back in control. No more being manipulated by engagement-driven platforms.
SureSpace is pitching itself as the world’s first verified safe social space—built in the UAE, with global ambitions.
A hybrid social and professional space
SureSpace merges the personal with the professional in one space.
- Combines features of LinkedIn and Instagram
- Verified users only—no bots or fake accounts
- Networking for both careers and hobbies
Instead of switching between platforms, users can manage both their personal and professional connections in one place. Think less noise, more meaning.
The goal? Help people express themselves without worrying about judgment, trolls or being “on-brand.”
Strict moderation and verified safety
SureSpace is serious about safety.
- AI moderation backed by real human oversight
- Zero tolerance for harassment or bullying
- Real-time protection from toxic behaviour
Where most platforms are reactive (and slow), SureSpace claims it’s proactive. Its dual-layer safety tools are designed to stop abuse before it spreads—making it one of the safest social apps around.
The app goes live on 25 September
The official launch event will take place on 25 September 2025 at DTEC, Dubai Silicon Oasis and the app will be available to download across the UAE on both iOS and Android.
If you’re in Dubai and tired of the usual social noise, it might be worth checking out.
Founder with a mission
Anish Suri, the founder, isn’t new to tech—but this time, it’s personal.
After facing mental health struggles himself, he built SureSpace as a socially responsible platform.
- Background: MSc in Business with Enterprise and Innovation, University of Edinburgh
- Goal: Build a space that puts people before engagement metrics
He wants SureSpace to prove that digital platforms can be both functional and human.
What makes SureSpace different from other social apps?
It’s verified, algorithm-free, and combines social and professional networking in a safe space.
Is SureSpace available outside the UAE?
Not yet. It launches in the UAE first, with possible expansion based on feedback and demand.
How is SureSpace moderated?
It uses advanced AI moderation with human oversight to prevent toxic content and behaviour in real time.
