Overview

Ami is developing a social platform designed to enhance real-world interactions among users. The platform encourages spontaneous meetings by using the user's location and their network of mutual friends to create opportunities for in-person connections. This approach aims to combat feelings of isolation and inauthenticity that can arise from excessive screen time, appealing to those who desire more genuine social experiences. Unlike other social networks that primarily focus on online interactions, Ami emphasizes the importance of face-to-face connections. The goal of Ami is to foster authentic relationships and community engagement in a world increasingly dominated by digital communication.
