Unumae: One Person, One Day

unumae.app Observed source

Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A planned daily portrait project that gives one ordinary person a shared 24-hour window for telling their story.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The proposed service organizes participation around a single daily UTC window rather than a continuously updating feed. A recorded draw would select one primary participant and three backups from a frozen eligible pool, while the selected person would have 12 hours to opt in. The homepage also describes human liveness and moderation review before publication, plus archive browsing by time, country, or chance. No live portrait or working archive is visible yet.
