## What is ThirdPass?

ThirdPass helps you find a great place to work, study, or focus - not just cafés, but the spots people overlook: privately owned public open spaces (POPOS), library reading rooms, hotel lobbies, and quiet corners near you.

• Discover spots nearby on a live map or list, with real hours and distance.
• Filter by cafés vs. other spaces, plus amenities like wifi, outlets, outdoor seating, and quiet.
• See the weather at a glance to pick a sunny patio or a cozy corner inside.
• Save your favorites and plan where to go next.
• Mark places you've visited and leave a quick review for the community.
• Know a great spot we're missing? Nominate it, and we'll reach out.

Free to use. No card needed. ThirdPass is starting in the Bay Area - find your third place.

- Set up a work date in a couple of taps, or a skill swap to trade what you each know

### 5/5 — Useful utility

*2026-06-14*

Got a great potential. Waiting for cafes to show up in my city.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much, Mochiman22! Really glad you see the potential - that means a lot this early. Coverage is exactly what we’re focused on right now, so cafés and spaces should start showing up in more cities soon. If you tell us where you are (or add a spot you love in-app), we’ll prioritize getting it on the map. Appreciate you giving ThirdPass a try!
