Overview

Raya is a private, membership-based app for people in creative industries to date, network, and make friends. It runs on iOS with a subscription model (standard and premium) and may host member events, with revenue from monthly fees. Applications are vetted by an anonymous global committee and require a current member referral, with very selective acceptance; profiles are linked to Instagram and shown as a photo montage set to a chosen song. The app offers a nearby-members map and a searchable directory for professional connections while enforcing privacy, such as banning screenshots, to create a discreet, high-profile community.
