Meet nearby.
Make real plans.

Why we’re building Praxis.

Social media helped the world connect — but somewhere along the way, it stopped feeling social.

Today, most platforms are built around endless scrolling, algorithms, isolation, and content consumption. You can spend hours online and still feel disconnected from the people and places around you.

We think there’s a better way.

Praxis is being built around real-world connection: nearby people, local places, spontaneous plans, shared experiences, and communities that feel alive.

We want discovering people nearby to feel natural. We want cities to feel more social. We want meeting friends, finding events, and discovering local activity to happen effortlessly.

Instead of another platform designed only to maximize screen time, Praxis is designed to help people spend more meaningful time in the real world.

This is only the beginning. Praxis is currently in development and planned to launch first on iOS in 2027.

Welcome to the next generation of social connection.

Social media stopped feeling social.

Somewhere along the way, social media stopped being about people.

It became about algorithms, endless feeds, engagement metrics, and consuming content for hours without actually feeling connected to anyone around us.

You can open almost any app today and instantly see thousands of posts from strangers across the world — but still know nothing about the people nearby, the places around you, or what’s happening in your own city.

That feels backwards.

The internet made global connection easier than ever, but local connection slowly disappeared.

We think there’s a gap between digital life and real life that modern social platforms no longer solve well.

Most platforms optimize for attention and consumption. But very few are designed around spontaneity, local experiences, nearby people, real-world plans, and communities that feel alive.

That’s one of the reasons we started building Praxis.

Praxis is designed to feel more connected to the real world: discovering people nearby, seeing local activity, finding events, meeting friends, checking into places, and turning online interaction into real experiences.

We believe social apps should help people go outside more, discover their city, feel less isolated, meet more naturally, and create memories offline — not just consume content online.

Technology should make the real world feel more connected, not replace it.

That’s the direction we want Praxis to move toward. And this is only the beginning.

Why nearby discovery matters.

For most of the internet’s history, social platforms connected us to people far away.

But they rarely helped us connect with the people already around us.

You can spend hours online discovering creators, communities, and conversations happening across the world — while knowing almost nothing about the activity happening nearby.

Who’s at the same café? Who’s exploring the same city? Which places feel alive tonight? Where are your friends meeting? What’s happening around you right now?

Modern social apps became global first. But we believe there’s enormous value in making social feel local again.

Nearby discovery changes the feeling of a platform.

It transforms social media from passive consumption into real-world awareness.

Instead of endlessly scrolling through disconnected content, people can discover local activity, find nearby experiences, meet friends more naturally, create spontaneous plans, and feel more connected to their city.

That’s one of the ideas behind Praxis.

We’re building nearby discovery carefully: with privacy, intentionality, and user control built into the experience from the beginning.

People should decide when they’re discoverable, who can connect with them, and how visible they want to be.

Nearby technology should feel empowering — not invasive.

We also believe nearby social experiences can make cities feel more alive.

A restaurant becomes more social when you can see real activity. An event feels more dynamic when nearby people can discover it naturally. A city feels less isolating when meaningful connection becomes easier.

This isn’t just about technology.

It’s about making the digital world feel closer to real life again.

And we believe that’s where social platforms are heading next.
