ThinkMatch: AI-Powered Introductions for Real-World Events ThinkMatch helps you show up to parties, meetings, conventions, campus events, and other real-world gatherings already knowing who you may want to meet, why you may connect, and enough context to give the connection a real chance. Instead of walking into a room cold, ThinkMatch helps you arrive with better introductions, shared context, and real reasons to start a conversation. BUILT TO CHANGE HOW PEOPLE MEET ThinkMatch was built with one goal in mind: to make real-world social interaction easier, warmer, and more intentional. It acts like a thoughtful host—helping introduce people, break the ice, and give conversations a more natural place to begin. DISCOVER REAL-WORLD EVENTS Explore five focused discovery modes: • Major — concerts, performances, sports, and other live events • Places — nearby cafés, venues, and gathering spots • Campus — university and college events • Calendars — public organization calendars and their events • Community — location-based events and gatherings JOIN PUBLIC CONVERSATIONS • Read news and event information from supported public sources • Join public message boards connected to articles, events, and communities • Post and reply using your ThinkMatch identity • Receive notifications when conversations continue • Open notifications directly to the relevant discussion HOW IT WORKS • Discover an event or create your own • Answer thoughtful questions selected by the host • Get AI-assisted matches with other attendees • Learn why an introduction may be useful • Chat or optionally video chat before meeting By the time you arrive, you are not starting from zero.
