MeetMates
Lai Zhou
The challenge
In the modern urban sprawl, individuals often struggle to find companions for casual socializing, learning, and recreational activities, leading to a sense of disconnection and isolation within crowded cities.
The solution
MeetMates will offer a mobile app and website where individuals can find partners for various activities based on interests, availability, and location. The platform will feature: 1. User profiles that highlight interests, skill levels, and preferred activities. 2. A matching algorithm that suggests potential buddies with compatible interests and schedules. 3. In-app messaging to facilitate coordination and communication. 5. User reviews and verifications for safety and trust-building. 6. Organized events to encourage community participation and real-life connections.
