What is a Circle?
A small, recurring group of 4–8 people — matched on mindset, life stage, and vibe. Not a group chat. Not a one-off event. A place you actually belong.
- Two ways in
Find an existing Circle in the app and request to join, or let one form organically through your connections from Open Hangouts.
- Attend first, then decide
When you request to join a Circle, you come as a guest for one hangout. You meet the group. They meet you. No commitment until both sides are sure.
- The group votes you in
After the hangout, members vote. A majority yes and you're in. If it's not a fit, you're encouraged to explore others — no awkwardness, no explanation needed.
- Someone always shows up
Hangouts run on a recurring cadence — weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.
- Streaks keep it alive
Circles build streaks with every hangout. Go inactive for two months and the Circle is quietly retired — no ghost groups cluttering your feed.
- Safe by design
Identity-verified members, approval flows, public-first hangouts, and group norms set upfront. Everyone knows what they're walking into.
