Our mission as a company is to use technology to move the black community forward, faster. We are committed to excellence and giving back—a percentage of the profits from Blacture will be shared with the communities that need the most resources.
Blacture Media
The Blacture Media platform will be an epicenter for black culture, providing access where the black community is otherwise lacking. There you’ll find news and stories about technology, finance, politics, health, and entertainment all from unique black perspectives. Topical and timeless stories are curated for and by the community to create meaningful, nuanced conversations.
Using Blockchain technology, the Onyx phone earns you tokens as you shop with confirmed partners. These tokens are easily redeemable for cash at any ATM using the included Onyx debit card.

Entertainment
The depth of the black experience is best told through the medium of film. And yet, there is no one place to see and feel that experience. Until now. BlackFilms is a streaming site that seeks to reclaim and reintroduce the stories that might have been lost or never told.
Community Wellness
Health is the ultimate resource but unfortunately health outcomes for the black community are far worse than the general population. We are working on a pilot program with the University of Pittsburgh to deliver on-demand mobile nursing services to supplement and often replace more expensive minute clinics.
