Circle - Real Connections

Imagine Instagram meets Tinder meets WhatsApp, but for meeting new people IRL.

Circle is a small social app built around one idea: your feed

should be the people in your neighborhood, not strangers from

the other side of the planet. Real people. Real places. Things

you can actually show up to.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

- A feed of posts from people in your area — no algorithm, no

ranking, no influencers

- Find local groups (we call them Circles) with a chat and a

shared board — book clubs, run clubs, whatever you want to start

- Connect with people you meet, message them privately, share

photos, videos, voice notes

- Set your own radius — your feed is as small or as wide as you

want it

- Verified profiles — every account is selfie-verified, so you

know who's real

- QR codes for connecting in person, no usernames to remember

WHAT'S MISSING ON PURPOSE

- No algorithm. No feed manipulation. No "for you" page deciding

what you see

- No ads. Ever

- No influencers. No virality engine. No follower count that

matters

- No investors. No board. Built by one person, funded by no one

PRIVACY

You're always in control. Go invisible whenever you want. Choose

who can see you, who can message you, and how far your posts go.

Nothing leaves the app. Nothing gets sold.

WHY THIS EXISTS

I built Circle because I was tired of opening social apps looking

for people I could actually meet — and getting ads, influencers,

and strangers from the other side of the planet instead. So I

made the app I wanted to use. No business model pushing me to

take more of your attention. Just a small place that exists to

help you find your people.
