Brick is a free and exclusive app that allows people to connect to new people through their personal social networks. With BRICK you can chat, meet new people, and make friends in a community focused on trust. Whether you're new to an area or just looking to expand your social network BRICK is the best way to meet people you are most likely to get along with. Create a profile: Users can personalize their profiles with images and details. Share with Friends: Prompt users to share their unique user code with at least seven trusted friends to kickstart their social network map. Access to the app is granted exclusively through invitation. View profiles on Map: The app shows profiles of friends and friends of friends (FOF) on a scrollable map Chat: Engage in conversations with FOF to foster connections and organize meet-ups, or request an introduction from mutual friends. Meet up: Users can arrange in-person meetups with two or more connections Our app prioritizes: Trust: You trust your inner circle, why not use that trust for good? You trust your inner circle, why not use that trust for good? BRICK knows how hard it is to meet a complete stranger; we want to make it easier for you to connect to people one degree away from you. By connecting with friends of friends, we believe you're likely to share similar values and interests, enhancing the potential for meaningful relationships. Connecting people within your circle might not be top of mind although it might do your friends a lot of good. BRICK allows your trusted network to use their connection to you to improve their lives. Empowerment: We don't believe an algorithm or an application system should determine your access to people. We empower YOU and YOUR network to determine the type of people you see and how many people you see. We empower users to selectively accept or decline connections within their social network. Being part of someone's network does not necessitate reciprocation in yours. Exclusivity: BRICK doesn’t show follower/friend count, we don't care about that. This app isn’t about connecting with a random at the bar or a person from summer camp 10 years ago. BRICK allows you to access, use and visualize your most trusted network. We prompt you to be exclusive with your network. Intentionality: Making connections shouldn’t be a split second reaction. BRICK does not use the tiresome and conventional swiping method. You can return to profiles at any time.
