What if the right person was already nearby — and you just didn't know it? Fortuito is a connection app that brings people together in the real world. Instead of swiping through profiles of people who live across town, you get a notification when someone genuinely compatible is at the same coffee shop, park, or neighborhood spot as you. No swiping, no scrolling, no messaging strangers for weeks on end. You just live your life. Fortuito handles the rest. SERENDIPITY MEETS SCIENCE Do you remember meeting someone special in the normal course of your day? Fortuito brings that feeling back with real-time, location-based matching powered by AI: We find people who could be genuinely right for you based on your values, personality, and lifestyle. No photos, no public profiles, no swiping. Just pre-qualified singles who are looking to meet someone like you. We match you when you and the other person are physically nearby—not just in the same city, but in the same coffee shop or restaurant. If you both agree, we connect you so you can arrange to meet in person, often within minutes. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create your profile and tell us about your values, personality, and life goals. 2. Enable location sharing, close the app, and go about your day. 3. When someone compatible is nearby, you both get a notification. 4. Both say yes? Start chatting in the app and decide if you'd like to meet. 5. Not sure what to say? We give you a tailored opening question to get the conversation started. That's it. You never browse, swipe, or scroll. Fortuito works quietly in the background so you never miss a connection. PRIVACY WITHOUT COMPROMISE We built Fortuito for people who value safety, privacy, and consent: -There are no public profiles—a match only sees your age, gender, education, and a description of why you might be compatible. Anything else you share is up to you. -Create Privacy Zones around home, work, or anywhere you don't want to be matched. -All location data is automatically deleted after 2 hours. -You can choose to always be notified of a match first. If you decline, the other person never knows. -Offensive content is blocked automatically, and reports of inappropriate behavior are acted on within 24 hours. -We never sell your data. NO SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED Fortuito is free to download and there's no monthly fee. Matches use tokens, so you only pay when you connect with someone. And your first three matches are free. (New users receive 6 free tokens, which equates to three basic matches.) Stop swiping. Start meeting.

One match. Every Thursday. On purpose. Not a queue of forty waiting behind them. Not an algorithm optimising for your next session. One person who genuinely preferred you. HOW YOUR WEEK WORKS A small drop of real people arrives midweek — a handful, not a feed. You watch. You listen. Then you quietly choose who stood out. Your picks stay private; nobody sees who you chose. Thursday evening, one match is revealed — someone who chose you back. SAY IT, DON'T TYPE IT Three short videos, three prompts. No bio to agonise over and no posed photos — just how you actually talk. You see how someone moves and laughs before you ever decide. Personality, not a filter. It's the difference between reading a bio and being in the room. WHY ONE Because attention doesn't scale. Forty matches isn't forty chances — it's forty half-conversations and nobody you actually meet. One is few enough to take seriously. A week with a beginning and an end gives a connection your full attention, then hands the rest of your week back. ROLLING OUT CITY BY CITY We open one city at a time, so there are real people to meet rather than an empty map. If yours isn't live yet, you can join the list from inside the app. SAFETY Every profile and conversation includes reporting and blocking. Reports are anonymous and reviewed. You can delete your account, and everything in it, at any time from your profile. Two Chairs is free while we roll out.
