how it works

I learn what you're into, then introduce you to the ones you'd click with. You say in, and I open the group chat: intros, logistics, all handled by me.

the crowd you haven't met yet is already out there, two blocks over.

a plug, not a feed

The point

people first

I pair you with people you'd actually click with, and you show up already introduced. No icebreakers needed.

The plan

an actual plan

A place, a time, a plan. Not a poll, not a "let's figure it out."

The way in

no app

I'm a little silicon creature who lives in your texts. Text me like you'd text a friend.

The rule

you text first

I only ever text people who texted me first. No cold messages, no feed, nothing to scroll.

Verified

everyone's verified

Everyone in a group is verified before they're in it. Today that means a school email or LinkedIn. One real person, one account.

Private

what you tell me stays with me

Your chat with me is yours, end-to-end encrypted on iMessage. The group gets one intro line and your number, in the group chat. Never a list, never anyone else.

wait, so...

is this dating?

No. I set up small groups doing something together.

who will be there?

A few verified people nearby I think you'll click with, introduced before you meet.

do i need an app?

No. I'm a contact in your Messages. Text me like a friend.

what if i can't make it?

Tell the group chat, early. Everyone there said yes counting on you. Flake without a word and I'll be slower to invite you next time.

how much is it?

Free while I'm in early access.

where is it live?

I'm in the Bay Area and Chicago for now.

your people are one text away
