ChaiKorner helps you turn free time into plans with people nearby. I'm Free — Announce you're open to hang out right now (or later today), and see who else nearby is free too. Discover — Browse activities happening near you: cricket, basketball, hiking, tennis, pickleball, chai & coffee, food, movies, or just a hangout. Filter by interest and distance. Host or join — Start an activity with a time, place, and headcount, or join one someone else posted. Keep it open to everyone nearby, or invite-only for just the people you invite. Connections — Build a friend graph with people you've actually done things with, and invite them straight into your next plan. Chat — Coordinate with your group in a chat tied to each activity. Privacy by design — We only use an approximate area (never your exact location), and every activity includes block and report tools. Sign in with Apple, Google, or your phone number to get started.
