Everyone worth meeting is already nearby.
Open the map and see who's actually out around you. Send a pulse — they've got 60 seconds to pulse back, and you're talking before it expires.
Pulse is for the hour you're in — a coffee, a rooftop, a run at seven. Nobody to swipe on, nobody to keep up with, and no profile that outlives the evening.
Three taps from stranger to plans
No follower graph, no endless scroll. Five tabs, and nothing is ever more than two levels deep.
See who's around
One map, three layers — people, meetups, moments. Set the radius to 200 m and the neighbourhood fills in.
Send a pulse
One tap, no opener to agonise over. Three pulses per person an hour, so nobody gets hounded.
Say hi before it expires
A pulse back opens an end-to-end encrypted chat. No answer in 60 seconds and it quietly disappears.
Built for the next hour, not the next scroll
Every screen answers two questions: who's near you, and what's happening around you tonight?
Small plans on the block tonight — who's going, what it costs, how the night runs.
Add your dates and Pulse groups you with the travelers whose trips overlap yours.
Encrypted, and tied to the moment — meetup chats close 48 hours after, circles when the trip ends.
The feed belongs to the block you're standing on
Start a meetup in three fields — time, place, how many. The block gets notified, not the internet.
People are already out there
We open a city once enough people are out to make a Tuesday worth leaving the house for.
I landed in Lusaka in March knowing nobody. Three rooftop meetups later I had a crew.
The 60 seconds is the whole trick. You either say hi or you don't — no three-day silence.
I stopped scrolling for plans. Now I just look at what's happening within 300 m.
Close enough to meet. Never close enough to find.
Ephemerality isn't a gimmick here — it's the safety model. Nothing you do on Pulse outlives the reason you did it.
We never share your exact location — people see a band like "120 m", never a point on a map.
You're invisible — nobody can see you, and you can't see anyone. No explaining, no penalty.
Chats are end-to-end encrypted. Pulses last 60 seconds, meetup chats close after 48 hours, circles when the trip ends.
From any profile, chat or moment. Blocked people vanish from your map.
Hotspots and meetups are public places by design — never a private address.
Every meetup shows its host, how many they've run and who's already going.
A declined pulse is never shown again, and no one can see that you passed.
Some nights the map is empty
If nobody's out near you, Pulse says so — “No one around right now. Wander somewhere busier?” — instead of padding the map. Leave your email and we'll tell you when your area starts buzzing.
