thirdspace vs CIRQL UK

thirdspace is where your existing friend group goes to have MORE FUN, together. You know that random Tuesday urge to get boba? The "someone come watch this sunset with me right now" moment? The "I just found the weirdest thrift store, get over here" energy? Those are sidequests. And thirdspace is built for exactly that. We made this app because we were tired of the same group chat cycle. Someone says "we should hang out," everyone says "definitely," and then nobody does anything for three weeks. thirdspace kills that cycle in two minutes flat. HOW SIDEQUESTS WORK 1. Start a Sidequest Snap a pic of whatever caught your attention, type what you're doing, and send it out. Could be anything. A spontaneous coffee run. A walk to nowhere. Finding the best taco within walking distance. Your nearby friends get notified instantly. 2. The 2-Minute Window Your friends have 2 minutes to join the sidequest. That's it. No "let me check my schedule." No "maybe later." You're either locking in or missing the moment. This timer exists because the best hangouts are the ones nobody overthinks. 3. Location Reveal Your location stays completely hidden until a friend accepts. Once they're in, maps unlock for both of you, and you're on your way to actually meeting up. Safety first, always. 4. Capture the Moment When you link up, take a pic together. No filters. No posing for 20 minutes. Just proof that you actually left the house and did something with your friends. Share it with your circle or post it publicly. Your Sidequest Log: Every hangout gets saved to your personal Memories. Scroll back through all the spontaneous coffee runs, the chaotic midnight drives, the "why did we walk here" adventures. A whole timeline of times you actually showed up for your friends. WHY YOUR FRIEND GROUP NEEDS THIS The 2-minute timer makes flaking basically impossible. You're in or you're not. No more "I'll let you know" texts that go nowhere. Locations stay private until someone commits. Your friends only see where you are after they accept the sidequest. This isn't another app for watching people live their lives through a screen. thirdspace is for people who want to be in the room, on the curb, at the spot. The whole point is to get you and your friends outside, doing things together in real life. Whether its your close friends or someone new in the group, the best connections happen when you stop scrolling and start showing up. thirdspace. stop scrolling. start questing.

CIRQL is a live map of your city. Open it and see what is broadcasting near you right now. Tap any pin and watch live, from exactly where it is happening. For communities: A way to bring people watching the stream into the room. Dance schools, run clubs, music collectives, social leagues: broadcast your sessions, schedule recurring nights so members know when to tune in, and let visitors discover you the same way they'd discover a venue: by walking past it. For venues and businesses: Claim your location on the map. Stream from inside on busy nights, post upcoming events as scheduled pins, and let people watching from anywhere see what tonight actually looks like before they decide to come down. The bar fills itself when the bar shows itself. For streamers: One tap to go on air. No setup, no studio, no following to build first. Stream a gig, a class, a kitchen, a dancefloor, a build. The pin shows people where the broadcast is coming from. The audience finds you because of where you are, not because an algorithm decided to surface you. CIRQL is built for life. The map is just where it lives. Currently active across London.
