People are desperate for this. ## Revenue Model - Free for basic features - Premium: Unlimited groups, event hosting, verified badge - Local business partnerships for meetup venues

The async chat + scheduled meetups is the key differentiator. Bumble BFF failed because it's too much like dating. This feels more organic.

As someone who codes alone all day, I desperately need this. Would pay $20/month for premium if it means meeting genuine people who share my interests.

YES! I'm so tired of being lonely in my own city. Would love features like: 'Coffee walks on Saturday mornings' or 'Board game night every Thursday'. Recurring activities build real friendships.

Love this but how do you prevent it from turning into another dating app? I'd suggest making it explicitly anti-dating with strict moderation.

I've been thinking about this EXACT idea for years! Moved to a new city during COVID and making friends as an adult is nearly impossible. The 'groups first' approach is genius for safety.
