No biometrics, no algorithm-controlled feed: Kuerate lets professionals filter content by keyword and verify via work email
NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, September 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Kuerate, a new professional networking platform, today launched with a feature no other professional network currently offers: user-controlled positive and negative keyword and tag filtering that lets professionals block unwanted content and prioritize the topics they care about. The feature is the first release from a platform built around a simple premise: professionals, not algorithms or advertisers, should decide what reaches their feed and how their identity is verified.
The launch responds to a broader shift in how professionals think about their digital identity and their feeds. As professional networking has grown more automated, many users say they want more control over the content that reaches them and more clarity about how their identity is verified. Kuerate was built to give them both: a feed shaped by the user’s own keywords and tags, and identity verification through a professional’s work email rather than biometric data. For content creators, this means posts are shown only to users who have actively selected those tags or keywords, eliminating the guesswork of message targeting.
“Professional networking today asks you to hand over biometric data to prove you’re real, and then it gives you no say in what shows up in your feed,” said [Brittany Usher], [Co-Founder] at Kuerate. “We built the opposite. Your verified work email is your credential, not a facial scan. And you decide what you see, down to the keyword, not an algorithm optimizing for someone else’s engagement numbers.”
Kuerate’s launch release includes:
• Positive and negative keyword filtering. Professionals can prioritize the topics they want more of and permanently block the terms and tags they don’t, with no algorithm deciding what still gets through. Curated for you, by you.
• Verification without biometrics. Kuerate verifies professionals through their organizational email domain; no facial recognition, ID scanning, or third-party biometric vendor.
• Mandatory AI disclosure. A five-tier AI-disclosure standard applies platform-wide, with an option to filter to human-generated content only.
• Built-in CRM. Professionals can nurture the relationships they build rather than simply accumulating contacts.
“Kuerate is redefining how professionals engage with content,” said [Linley Scorgie], [Founder] at Kuerate. “By giving users the power to control what they see, and what they don’t, we’re fostering a platform where every interaction is valuable. This isn’t just about reducing noise; it’s about enhancing professional connections and precision messaging.” Kuerate is now available to professionals globally, with a market focus in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
