To cut to the chase:
We’re shutting down Yuma in a week.
In the process of building Yuma, we realized that we’d invented what amounts to a massive leap forward in database architecture, and we’re going to pursue turning this discovery into an infrastructure platform anyone can use to build on.
We’re insanely excited where this work is taking us.
We’ve enjoyed cultivating Yuma into a small and bustling social network throughout 2025 and it represents an arc of research we’ve been conducting since 2018 — it’s no small decision on our part to wind Yuma down, but we want to remain entirely focused on the next stage of our company’s life, one we think will have massive effects on our industry.
We hope you had fun chatting with the objects in your life and expanding your imagination as to the possibilities of combining new technologies with a pinch of whimsy.
