MERJ

At Merj, our mission is to help people connect with one another in real life. We got tired of watching people spend full days scrolling aimlessly through their phones, knowing full well that their friends were probably doing the exact same thing. Merj allows users to create a network of friends that they would actually want to hang out with and then share their availability and events with those people. The average person has only a handful of people that they would actually ask to hang out, ... but countless others that they consider friends. Merj helps users find plans with more people than they ever would on their own. Merj separates itself from other forms of social networks in its emphasis on driving real-world interaction. Merj allows users to provide two forms of content: availability and events. "Availability" offers a user the ability to let their friends know when they are looking for something to do; maybe their closest friends are out of town and they aren't sure who to text, Merj lowers the barrier to messaging someone they haven't talked to in a while. "Events" allow users to create events with limited or unlimited numbers of spots available for friends to join as well as with interest tags that when matching a friend's interests will notify that user of the new event. Common applications are pickup sports, parties, day trips.More
