HeartSpace

Read full description

HeartSpace is the easiest way to enjoy heartfelt moments with those you love — friends, family, lovers, tribe, connections, grandparents, siblings, parents, your social followers... or even match with someone new. HeartSpace is a connection game for two people, on video. Our AI host guides you both: it asks the questions, holds the timing, opens each person's microphone when it's their turn, then gets out of the way. You don't have to think about what to say, or where the conversation might go. You just have to show up. Games start at around ten minutes. Some are warm and slow. Some are playful. Some ask something of you. All of them leave you somewhere you wouldn't have arrived by texting. HOW IT WORKS • Send a link to someone, or match with someone new • Camera on, headphones optional • Our AI host guides the two of you, turn by turn • You each leave with one word for how it felt WHY WE MADE IT We built HeartSpace for two people at a time, on purpose. A few real minutes together does more than a feed full of everyone. YOU'RE IN CONTROL • Sessions aren't recorded or stored • End and report at any point in a game • Anyone you'd rather not meet again, you won't • 16+ Free to play. Go Unlimited for unlimited games.
