๐Ÿ• A new kind of first date

Ten minutes.
One pizza.
In public.

You pick half. They pick half. You meet at a busy public spot, share the pizza, and actually talk. First impressions in person, not another week of texting.

Share & talk

Ten minutes, half and half, face to face. Then you go. Maybe you meet again.

A pizza split into two different halves
The half-and-half rule

You choose yours. They choose theirs.

Half the pizza is your pick. The other half is a surprise, chosen by the person across the table. It's a tiny window into someone, and the easiest icebreaker there is.

Pineapple or no pineapple? You're about to find out who you're really dealing with.

Keep it light.

It's just lunch.

Nine times out of ten you'll just make a friend, and that's great. The point isn't a soulmate by Friday. It's to get out, meet real people face to face, and get the first impression that a hundred messages never give you.

Safe by design

Every date is built to be public, verified and contained. That's the whole model, not an afterthought.

๐Ÿชช

Verified faces

Every member passes a face-verification check, so the person you meet is the person on the profile.

Always in public

Dates only happen at busy, staffed, well-lit venues, surrounded by people. Never anywhere private.

๐Ÿ“Œ

A handful of spots

A small, fixed set of approved locations and time slots. You always know exactly where you're going.

No off-app contact

You can't message people elsewhere or move the date somewhere else. The date is the date, and then it's done.

Public spots, ready and waiting

Dates happen at a curated set of busy public venues. Here's the idea.

Be first to the table.
