CommonAR vs Known

HOW DOES IT WORK? CommonAR uses augmented reality and facial recognition to overlay profiles of fellow attendees in your immediate space. Either flip the camera inwards and "take a selfie" with someone you just met or flip it outwards and scan around. For every attendee you encounter, match data will be populated by AI using both of your profiles. This way you can steer conversations in the most meaningful direction. You also get all their provided socials in one go for manual reference and to reach out after. WHY USE US? We help you create the most productive events possible. As everyone knows, gaining footing in a new room is difficult. This becomes especially difficult at networking events where you are met with strict time constraints, a desire to build many connections, and limited social cohesion/atmosphere. Networking events need a better cold start to reach the level of efficiency attendees desire. It is currently impossible to walk away from an event with 100 meaningful contacts and why exactly you should connect with them. That's where we come in. Instead of spending 30 minutes grasping at straws for conversation starters like the weather, we get people talking about things they have in common quickly. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? Free for hosts. Free for users. Free for everybody. We plan to stay totally free while we expand our offerings in pursuit of accelerating meaningful in-person interaction. HOW DO I GET STARTED? Download the App. Create a new event on commonar.com. Share the event link with anyone you want to attend. That's it.

Known is a matchmaker in your pocket. Tell us who you are on one voice call, and we'll introduce you to one person at a time, then book the date for you. The swiping era is over. Swipes and likes turned dating apps into an endless dopamine chase. Small talk is exhausting, and by the time you finally meet someone, it's often too late for anything real. Known gets to know you first, then handles everything until you're sitting across from someone worth meeting. In early testing, 80% of Known introductions led to an in-person date. Not chats that fizzled out. Real dates, in real life. Not a game. Not a job. Not a gamble. HOW IT WORKS 1. A voice call, not a form You talk, and Known listens: who you are, how you live and what you want from a relationship. Most members spend about 26 minutes on the call. Known writes your profile for you and keeps it current as it learns more. 2. One introduction at a time No feed and no queue. Known sends one hand-picked introduction, chosen from what it knows about both of you. 3. 24 hours to say yes You both have 24 hours to accept. If either of you passes, the introduction closes and Known starts on your next one. 4. Ask Known before you meet Ask anything you'd like to know about your match before the date. Known answers from what it learned on their call. 5. The date, handled When you both say yes, Known checks your calendars, picks a local restaurant that fits your tastes, dietary needs and budget, and makes the reservation. All that's left is to show up. 6. A quick check-in after A short follow-up after each date helps Known make your next introduction better. WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE KNOWN - No swiping: one considered introduction instead of an endless feed. - Built for serious relationships: everyone here wants something real. - Fully handled: from your first call to the restaurant reservation. Less scrolling. More intention. This is Known.
