thirdspace vs Squash the Beef!

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.

Tiny stuff piles up. The dishes. The forgotten birthday. The trip flake. Squash the Beef gives you a way to actually do something about it: put a price on it, send it to your friend, see what they do. Your group chat ignored your birthday. Someone didn't pull their weight on the trip. Not worth a real fight, but worth something. File a beef. Name a dollar amount. Watch what happens next. HOW IT WORKS 1. File a beef Pick a friend. Describe what happened. Attach a small amount — $5 to $20. 2. They choose They can Squash it (pay your price), Peace Offering (counter with a lower amount and an optional message), or Decline (and nothing happens — no penalty, no deadline, no pressure). 3. Move on The beef gets a receipt. The money changes hands. Everyone goes back to being friends with one fewer thing to carry around. WHAT MAKES IT SQUASH THE BEEF • Voluntary. Always. No one can make you pay, and there are no consequences for saying no. • Small by design. Bounties are capped so this stays petty social banter — not rent, not debts, not serious money. • Peace offerings. If someone's ask feels too high, counter with a lower amount. Negotiate up to three rounds before it expires. • Reports, blocking, and a real person reviewing abuse reports. Harassment is a banning offense. • Payments via Stripe through Apple Pay. Industry-standard security. We never see your card details. SQUASH PRO Your first beef is free. If you want to file more, Squash Pro unlocks: • Unlimited beefs • Bounties up to $50 • More counter-offer flexibility • Custom receipt styles for sharing $4.99 / month or $49.99 / year. 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime in Settings. WHO THIS IS FOR College friends. Roommates. Couples. Group chats that spend too much time rehashing small slights. Anyone who'd rather put a number on it and move on than carry a grudge into next week. 17+. U.S. only at launch. Privacy-first: we never upload your contacts, never track you across apps, never sell your data.
