Towner vs Convos · The Agentic Messenger

Life is best enjoyed with others. And interests bring us together. On Towner, an interest is an Into. Follow Intos to see who shares your interests nearby and to receive activity alerts about opportunities to connect in your area that match your interests. Towner is a hyper-local social networking platform for finding people who share your interests in the area. Have a hobby? Looking to meet new people? Want to get a group together for an activity? Have something you’d like to discuss with people nearby? There are 3 main ways to connect: (1) People Nearby If users choose to make their profile Discoverable, then they can see other discoverable users browsing in the general area. By selecting a profile, a user can see what Intos are shared and then start a private Chat with the user by sending them a message. (2) Chats A user can post a Chat to start a group conversation on any Into. Each Chat is location-based, so only users whose browsing area include the Chat’s location can discover the Chat. (3) Plans A user can post a Plan, or casual event, to share an opportunity to connect in-person around an Into (e.g. Walk, Social). Each Plan is only visible to users whose browsing area includes the Plan’s location. If the Plan is posted in a Community, then any Community Member can discover the Plan. Other notable features: Plans are designed for safety Each Plan, by default, hides location details until a user has asked to join and then the organizer has approved that user. All Participants of a Plan are automatically added into a group chat. Communities designed for diversity Towner Communities serve groups with diverse interests. It provides an easy way for Members to connect with other Members with similar Intos. User profiles built on trust To encourage user-vetting, Towner users vouch for one another. Vouches can only be made by users who’ve previously received a Vouch to enhance their reliability. Intos are endless From broad to specific, Intos allow users to find others who share their interests, no matter the interest - as long as it encourages the flourishing of a supportive community. Any user can suggest additional Intos. To learn more about Towner, email hello@towner.app

Every groupchat gets an agent. Each convo is a groupchat with an agent in it. It keeps up with the thread so nobody has to — who's in, when, where, what got decided, what everyone said they'd bring. Then it turns forty messages into something you can actually use. You’re in control of what your agent sees — and doesn’t. AGENTS LISTEN SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO SCROLL Plans get made in the middle of the chaos. Your agent keeps track. Nine confirmed for the match. Kickoff at 7:30. Louis called out the pizza place. Ask it later and it just knows — no one has to scroll back three days to find the address. YOU CONTROL WHEN YOUR AGENT SPEAKS UP Three settings, one tap. Listen: it only speaks up when someone says "Agent." Chat: it chimes in anytime it can help. Pause: it never sees the messages. Ever. GET THINGS DONE WITHOUT BLOWING UP THE CHAT Ask your group's agent something 1:1 — what was that pizza place, when does the flight land, what did we decide — and get an answer without twenty phones buzzing. Same agent, same context, private thread. IT MAKES THINGS AND KEEPS THEM HANDY Itineraries, lineups, notes, running lists, receipts. Everything your agent makes lands in Things, right in the chat, ready to open, edit, or share. NO SIGNUP, NO PHONE NUMBER Scan, tap, or AirDrop into a convo. Chat instantly with anybody. WHY WE BUILT THIS An agent in the group chat should be a great listener, not an annoying yapper or a surveillance bot. So we put the group in control: it hears what you let it hear, it speaks when you let it speak, and it makes useful stuff for the crew.
