Alexandria Technologies seeks to empower users through a digital community centered on books and podcasts, rejecting the attention-driven models of big tech. Inspired by the Enlightenment-era coffee houses, the company aims to foster open dialogue, curiosity, and empathy without exploiting user data for ad revenue. Operating as a Public Benefit Corporation with humane guiding principles, Alexandria’s business model focuses on selling books and audiobooks rather than monetizing attention. By creating technology that respects human nature and promotes understanding, Alexandria Technologies strives to provide a meaningful, positive space for knowledge-sharing that helps people thrive in today’s digital age.
