Stitch is infrastructure for real-life connection, not another swiping app. Instead of browsing profiles, you share what you actually want to do: grab coffee, go for a hike, catch a local concert, or try a new restaurant. Stitch finds people nearby who are into the same thing. No performing, swiping, or endless chatting never resulting in a meetup. Just showing up for something you'd do anyway, with people who happen to be doing it too. HOW IT WORKS: - Tell Stitch what you're in the mood for, or browse ideas curated from your interests and real local events near you - Get matched with a small group of people nearby who are free at the same time - Chat opens once enough people are in, so you can coordinate details before you meet - Show up. That's it. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT: - Built around proximity and shared plans, not endless scrolling - Matching considers your social style, availability, and interests - Group-based by design, so the pressure of a 1:1 "date" isn't the default - No likes. No followers. No swiping through profiles. WHO IT'S FOR: Stitch is for anyone who's moved somewhere new, wants more friends nearby, or is just tired of the group chat that never actually turns into plans. It's a way to turn "we should hang out sometime" into an actual afternoon. Currently available in Stevens Point, WI and surrounding area. More areas coming as the community grows.
