We believe people often share much more about themselves online than they realize. WormDive was created to help users see their online presence from a stranger’s perspective—and decide if they're comfortable with what’s out there.
We’re a privacy-focused team with healthy relationships with our parents and a healthy fear of oversharing. We want to help others learn more about their own digital footprint!
