Being there means something.

The internet made it possible to have almost everything without being anywhere, but some things mean more because of where you are when you get them, and who you’re with.

Our mission

Make being there part of social life.

“Being there” has always meant two things: being somewhere, and being there for someone. Togra is built where they meet.

Why we’re building it

Social media got very good at keeping people on screens. We build social media that gives you a reason to leave one.

It’s still a social network

Friends, followers, messages, groups and Circles all work the way you’d expect. Togra isn’t against phones or screens. The phone is how being there becomes something you can share.

Where the name comes from

Togra comes from “touch grass”. The internet says it as a joke. We took it as an invitation: your friends left you something outside.

What we won’t do

No streaks, no guilt, no counting down. People come back because someone left them something, not because an app needs them to.

Created in Nairobi.
Designed for the world.

Togra starts in Nairobi. It’s made for anywhere friends make plans, get lost, come back and leave something behind.
