Six adults talking around a long table at a supper club, mid-laugh

Find Life Outside.
Connect.

You don't need a group chat to have a plan. Pick something you want to do — we'll find four to six people who'd enjoy doing it too. Then you go together.

Who this is for

“I want to go out. Who am I going with?”

FLOC is for people who want more connection in their everyday lives, no matter what stage of life they're in.

You don't have to be lonely to want more connection. FLOC isn't a dating app — you can have a partner and still want your own friends, your own plans, and your own community.

The problem isn't that people don't want friends. It's that adult friendship doesn't happen as naturally anymore.

Come as you are. Find your people. Go together.

  • Maybe you're 22 and new to the city
  • Maybe you're 31 and your friends are always busy
  • Maybe you're 42 and want to meet people outside of work
  • Maybe you're 53 and want to expand your social circle
  • Maybe you're single, dating, partnered, married, or simply looking for your people

Whether you want someone to grab dinner with, go to a concert, try a new class, play pickleball, explore the city, network, or simply get out of the house with people you actually vibe with — there's a FLOC for you.

You don't have to wait for everyone else to be free. Go anyway.

The flight path

Three stops between “I'd go” and “we went.”

  1. Stop One

    Pick something you want to do

    We find people who'd enjoy it too

    Four to six adults you'd probably enjoy hanging out with. Chat before you meet.

  3. Stop Three

    Then go together

    Somewhere public, verified members, and nobody walking in alone.

Ten quick questions. No essays, no personality report card.

FLOC is for meeting strangers. It shouldn't feel like meeting random strangers.

Meet your FLOC.

A few people you'd probably enjoy hanging out with — different ages, different backgrounds, same desire to connect.

How to join

A note on safety

We built this for people who'd normally stay home.

The whole reason FLOC exists is that meeting new people is worth it and still feels risky. So safety isn't a policy page here — it's the product. Verification is required, groups stay small on purpose, and every screen has a way out.

If a night ever feels off, you shouldn't have to be polite about it.

How safety works at FLOC

Everyone verifies

Government photo ID, phone and email confirmed before anyone sees an exact location, plus a consumer background screening through an independent partner. Screening reduces risk — it can't guarantee anyone's behavior.

Small groups only

Four to six people. Never a room of forty strangers, never a one-on-one with someone you've never met.

A report button that works

One tap from any chat or event. Block instantly. We read every report ourselves.

Share my plans

Send a friend where you're going, who you're with and when you'll be back — in two taps.
