Outcry is ten tools for organizers: a strategy chat, a movement researcher, a brainstorm laboratory, a daily brief, and more. Increasingly, organizers are taking Outcry private: on-device on iOS and Mac, inside Signal, or on our encrypted OS. Tell us what you’re doing and we’ll point you at the right surface.

No ads. No third-party tracking scripts. No data brokers. Outcry is funded by organizers, not advertisers — your conversations never feed an ad-targeting pipeline.
The Outcry iOS and Mac apps run an Activist AI entirely on your device. No cloud. No data transmission. No tracking. No accounts. And 100% free. Your conversations never leave your machine. This is the direction we’re moving: activist AI that is private by default.
Use the web apps when you need the most intelligent Activist AI for deep strategic research. Use iOS and Mac when privacy is your priority. The next wave of organizers will need both.

Outcry was founded by Micah Bornfree (formerly, Micah White), co-creator of Occupy Wall Street and author of The End of Protest. Start free, then scale into deeper daily strategy sessions when your campaign needs more capacity.
“I learned at Occupy that movements win when they innovate tactically faster than power can adapt. Outcry is the next evolution of that principle — AI built to help every activist invent the tactics this moment demands.”
— Micah Bornfree, co-creator of Occupy Wall Street
The organizers who got the most from Outcry kept bumping into the same wall: breakthrough insight in conversation, then back to a dozen fragmented corporate tools. OutcryOS is what we’ve been building toward — a persistent encrypted cloud computer, AI with shell access, a mesh network, and a real OS with applications organizers actually need.
