Selçuk Bayraktar announced the public availability of NEXT Teknofest Social, the domestic social media platform developed by TEKNOFEST entrepreneurs.

NEXT Teknofest Social is now available
One of the platform’s most prominent features is the integration of T3 AI, a domestically produced language model developed in collaboration with the Turkey Technology Team Foundation (T3 Foundation) and Baykar. This AI, described as being developed with an “ethical artificial intelligence” approach, can respond to user-tagged content and understand content in different languages. This feature sets a new example of the active use of domestic technology in social media interaction.
The app offers users an ad-free social media experience. The promotional video shared by Selçuk Bayraktar drew attention with the phrase “no ads, no censorship, just an AI robot.” It was stated that the platform stands out with its uncensored and secure structure.
NEXT Teknofest Social brings together users who create content on topics such as news, technology, life, and current events. It also aims to transcend the traditional social media experience with its AI-powered interactions. T3 AI provides real-time responses to tagged content and can deliver highly accurate interaction in Turkish.
The app can be downloaded on Android and iOS operating systems. Users can access the platform through T3 SSO by selecting the TEKNOFEST Social server during the login process. The statement also stated that the app’s technical infrastructure was developed entirely with domestic resources.
NEXT Teknofest Social is positioned as the social media reflection of the projects developed under the TEKNOFEST umbrella. Bringing Turkey’s technology-focused young entrepreneurship to the digital arena, the app stands out as a new alternative in the social media ecosystem with its AI integration and domestic software structure.
