Why it’s called Marcel
In 1925 the anthropologist Marcel Mauss wrote The Gift. He found that communities were held together by giving, receiving and giving back. Not by status or show. Marcel is named after him.
Give. Receive.
Give back.
What I believe
- You don’t have to create content to build a network. You shouldn’t need to become a creator just to meet the right people.
- Give more. Get more. Marcel values people who help others, not people who collect likes and impressions.
- Human connections matter more as AI gets better. When everyone has access to powerful AI, the people you know and the relationships you build become even more valuable.
- Your circumstances shouldn’t limit your opportunities. Someone in India should have the chance to meet the right people just as someone in San Francisco does.
- The right person matters more than the popular person. Your network should help you find people who are relevant to your goals, not simply people with reach or followers.
Marcel has no app, no feed and no posts. It lives in the AI you already use. You say who you need. It finds them, and both of you say yes before you meet. That’s it.
