Company mission
Outside's mission is to be a place where you always have a friend to be with.
Our take
Outside are developing an app that allows users to see when their friends are nearby and arrange to meet. Users can let their friends know that they want to do something - such as go for a walk or a drink - set a time and date, and request their friends to join them. Once accepted, a group chat is opened to enable further organisation of the meet-up, and an event is created which allows users to schedule events immediately, or hours or days in advance.
There are plenty of meetup apps already, such as Bumble or Meetup.com, but Outside is unique in that it is aimed at arranging meetups with old friends, rather than meeting new people.
Dubbed by the founder as the "anti-metaverse", the app aims to be the tech solution that enables real-life human connection, and aims to make organising social events much easier.
Outside is in the early stages of development, and currently has a waitlist to download the app once it is released on Apple and Android. It has its marketing efforts focused on university campuses where it will be sure to gain attention from students, which will help to catapult it into the market.
