This project explores
,
an app built for young people — solo or in groups — to find strangers heading to the same
events nearby
— concerts, open mics, food festivals, art shows — and match before they even walk in the door,
turning a night out into something worth sharing.
Set your vibe, pick your interests, and you're in. Weave gets you ready for tonight without the lengthy sign-up.
Browse events happening right around you — concerts, open mics, food festivals, art shows — and see exactly who's already going.
Tap into any event and see the full picture — lineup, vibe, who's going. Every detail you need to decide if tonight is worth it.
Transparent profiles and community reviews give you the context to feel safe saying yes — before you've even met.
Match with strangers headed to the same event and say hi before the night begins. The event is already the icebreaker — no awkward openers needed.
Events are the perfect icebreaker. Designing around a shared destination removed the biggest barrier to meeting strangers — the question of what to talk about.
Users — especially young women — needed to feel safe before they felt excited. Verification, gradual disclosure, and trust signals had to come first.
Group matching required a fundamentally different mental model. Compatibility wasn't just individual — it was about energy, group size, and shared intent.
Every rounded corner, every orange gradient, every illustration was deliberate. The app needed to feel like a warm invite from a friend, not a cold algorithm.
