Why Chummi

The extroverted friend you always needed.

Nobody opens an app to make friends. That's terrifying. But they'll show up for a boba run. The activity is the icebreaker. Connection is the destination.

The warm intro, at scale

Before Chummi, you relied on a mutual to introduce you to someone. Chummi is that infrastructure. Like a friend at a party who says "you two need to meet" — except it works for everyone, everywhere, all the time.

"Have you been to?"

Browse events and tag along in under 10 seconds. The host is already moving. No form to fill, no cold message — just say you're coming.

"Have you met?"

Browse the people feed. Chummi surfaces someone with your interests — not an algorithm, more like a friend saying "you two need to meet." Curious is always easier than committed.

"Come with me"

After a repost, people with similar interests who are already going show up in your feed. You're not browsing for people or events. Both come to you through the natural momentum of someone saying come with me.

Memories that only live here

Photos that only exist inside Chummi — a private archive for the people who were actually there. The longer you're in it, the more irreplaceable it becomes.

How it works

Mildly curious. Slightly bored. That's all it takes.

01

Browse or post

Scroll the events feed or drop your own plan. Boba run, beach walk, Tuesday anything — the activity is the icebreaker.

02

"Tell me more"

One tap. Low commitment — you're opening a door, not saying yes. The scroll past is the silent no. Nobody sees the pass.

03

Show up & chum

Meet real people. Share the photos. Your attendance history becomes your real personality — Chummi reads it and gets better over time.

★★★★★

"I went to a boba run not knowing anyone. Left with three people I genuinely wanted to see again. That never happens with any other app."

★★★★★

"Moved to SoCal six months ago and didn't know a soul. Chummi did what years of dating apps couldn't — actually got me in a room with people I like."

Marcus T.Los Angeles, CA
★★★★★

"I've been hosting runs for years. Chummi is the first platform that actually understands what I'm doing — building community, not content."
