FindTribe: AI Event Navigation

This one comes from the crowd. After Welcome to Rockville, we spent time listening. We spoke with users. We watched how people moved. We saw where the app helped. And we saw where large festivals still make things hard. So this update is about refinement. We improved onboarding, making it easier to get into FindTribe, understand what it does, and start using it when the moment matters. We refined navigation, so moving through the app feels clearer, faster, and more natural. We also strengthened the app’s online resiliency, because connectivity at music festivals is still one of the biggest problems we saw firsthand. When the crowd gets dense, the signal gets fragile. When the weather changes, communication matters. When people are trying to find their friends, every second counts. This version improves what is already available today. But we’re building something bigger. Our next major step is Bluetooth mesh communication, designed to help people stay connected even when the internet collapses. That means friend coordination, messaging, and critical communication can begin to move through the crowd itself. Not just from towers. From people. From the tribe. We’re incredibly excited about where FindTribe is going. But for now, this release is about care. About learning. About making the app stronger for the people already using it. Thank you to everyone who tested FindTribe, gave feedback, shared ideas, and believed in what this could become. Built with the crowd. Built for the moment. Built together.
