Meet someone worth knowing? Nekt shares your contacts and socials instantly, then finds the best time and place to meet again. INSTANT CONTACT EXCHANGE Bump phones using Bluetooth to share your contact info and social profiles in one tap. Or scan a QR code if you prefer. No typing numbers, no searching usernames, no killing the moment. Your new contact is automatically saved to your phone. SHARE WHAT YOU WANT Keep personal and professional separate. Choose to share your personal info, work details, or both — you're always in control of what gets exchanged. AI-POWERED SCHEDULING Finding a time and place to meet shouldn't be harder than the meeting itself. Connect your phone calendar and Nekt automatically finds when you're both free. Say "lunch this week" or "drinks on Friday" and our AI suggests the best time, place, and activity. WORKS EVEN WITHOUT THE APP Your new contact doesn't have Nekt? No problem. They can scan your QR code and see your profile instantly through our App Clip — no download required. When they're ready, one tap installs the full app with their contact already saved. WHY DOWNLOAD THE APP? • Seamless Bluetooth bump — exchange contacts just by tapping phones together • Automatic contact saving — new connections go straight to your phone's contacts • Phone calendar integration — connect Apple or Google Calendar to find the time and place to meet • Lock screen widget — start exchanging with one tap, no unlock needed BUILT FOR REAL MOMENTS Conferences, meetups, parties, coffee shops — wherever good conversations happen, Nekt helps you keep them going.
