How it works

Your AI social concierge handles everything.

Real friendship is built through repeated, low-stakes, shared experiences. Found engineers those moments so you don't have to.

01
Tell Found who you are
A 15-minute conversational onboarding captures your personality, energy rhythms, humor, and what kind of people you've always clicked with. Far richer than any profile.
02
The AI finds your group
Found matches you with 4–6 compatible people using 150+ signals — not just shared interests. People you'd actually like, not just people who like the same Netflix shows.
03
Just show up
Found books a venue, syncs everyone's calendars, and sends personalized invites with context. You plan nothing. You just appear.
04
It keeps going
After each hangout Found schedules the next one automatically — the cadence that turns acquaintances into real friends, maintained without a single group chat debate.
05
You're found
After 90 days your group is self-sustaining. The AI steps back. You have people — real ones who know you. Found did its job.
Beta voices

From the people who were found first.

★★★★★
"I've lived in Austin for four years and never really had friends here. After six weeks, I have a group I see every week. I literally cried."
Maya R., 31 — Software Engineer, Austin TX
★★★★★
"The AI figured out I'd click with these people better than I ever could have. We barely had anything in common on paper. We just get each other."
Darian W., 27 — Freelance Designer, Denver CO
★★★★★
"I moved post-divorce with no local network. Found gave me my people back faster than I thought possible. I can't imagine life without them now."
Priya S., 44 — Marketing Director, Brooklyn NY
Why now

The friendship infrastructure collapsed. We're rebuilding it.

Remote work, rising costs, phone addiction — the systems that used to produce friends automatically have broken down for an entire generation.

Agentic AI, finally ready
The infrastructure needed to run a true social agent — one that books, schedules, and remembers — only matured in the last 18 months.
Remote work's social damage
Hundreds of millions lost their office social fabric permanently. It's not coming back. Found is the replacement infrastructure.
Connection apps are mature
Hinge, Bumble, and Tinder normalized meeting people through software. Found inherits that trust for a far less intimidating use case.
The cost of living crisis
Two-thirds of Americans now skip social events because they can't afford them. Found's curated gatherings lower the bar to showing up.
