The short answer,
and the long one.

Each week tens of millions of people open Gyrelle to learn something, to be moved, or simply to spend an hour well. Questions kept arriving about how the platform decides what appears in front of you, and who answers when it gets that wrong — so we built this site to reply plainly, and to show the work behind a service that viewers, makers and performers can rely on.

Our undertakings

A closer look at the work behind the platform

Keeping Gyrelle safer

Our approach rests on three habits — we take down material that breaks the rules we publish, we lift work from sources worth trusting, and we slow the spread of anything that sits close to the line without quite crossing it.

Those rules are written in plain language, reviewed on a fixed schedule with outside advisers, and enforced by a mix of trained reviewers and machine screening. In the first quarter of this year, 8.4 million uploads were removed before they reached 12 views.

Keeping your account secure

Whatever brings you to Gyrelle, we want the account you sign in with to stay yours.

Sign-in alerts, hardware key support and a plain record of every device you have used are switched on for everyone, at no cost.
