Trace: Real stories and people

Trace is a social app built around real people and the little stories happening in their everyday lives.

See what people are going through work drama, relationships, college life, random thoughts, awkward moments, small wins and everything in between.

Unlike platforms where everything needs to look polished or performative, Trace keeps things simple.

Discover people through their stories
Read short, casual stories from people you may never have come across otherwise.

Share without overthinking it
Something happened? Write it in up to 500 letters. No essays. No perfectly crafted posts. Just tell it like it happened.

Find people you relate to
React to stories, explore someone's profile and keep up with people whose lives or thoughts interest you.

Come back for what happens next
Follow ongoing stories and see updates from people you've started getting curious about.

Let conversations happen naturally
When two people follow and interact with each other's stories, conversations can unlock — so you already know a little about someone before saying hi.

Trace isn't about becoming a creator or building the perfect profile.

It's about discovering the person behind the profile.

Real people. Small stories. Genuine connections.
