Adult friendship shouldn't take this much effort.
NEEAV is an activity-first social connection app. We handle the logistics; you show up.
NEEAV is in development in the UK. We share product detail with funders and partners under a non-disclosure agreement.
The human answer to AI-driven loneliness.
We use AI to build real, in-person connection. We never use it to replace one.
NEEAV brings people together for wellness, connection, food, nature, hobby and fitness experiences, in person. The activity is the icebreaker. Friendship forms the way it always has: the same faces, in the same place, week after week.
NEEAV is not a dating app and it is not a networking event. It is there for a whole life, not a one-time fix.
Who it is for
Adults at a turning point: a new city, a new job, newly single, children growing up, retirement, a recent move. We write and design for a 24-year-old and a 68-year-old with equal warmth.
Bound by Values, United in Purpose.
We reinvent the platforms you use every day, the way you wish they'd been built in the first place. With the needs and protections of everyday people at the forefront of every design and build.
Activity first
We lead with what you will do, never with a promise to meet people. The activity is the hook.
Groups that return
The first meeting can be really hard but the reward is the second, the fifth and the twentieth. The reward is new friendships, new support networks, and new confidence. The group that stuck is the point.
Better than you arrived
Every experience has wellbeing built in. You leave better than you arrived, in body or in mind.
Grows with you
There is no finish line. NEEAV is made to stay useful through every stage of a life.
Privacy by default
No dark patterns, no fake urgency, no guilt-trip copy, in the product or in our marketing. We never sell your data.
The test for everything we ship
“Would the team be proud to show this to a journalist?”
Tell us what you love doing.
