Synite
Concept prototype. Everyone and everything you see is made up. Nothing is booked, sent or charged.
3 squads in London need one more player tonight

Less scrolling. More living.

Synite finds the overlap between you and people nearby, then gives you a reason to meet: a brunch, a padel court one player short, or a group that meets every Sunday.

Takes about 3 minutes to try. Then tell us honestly if you'd use it.

Why Synite?

The name is the whole idea.

Every friendship starts in the overlap: the things you and someone else both love, the places you both go, the game that's one player short. Synite is built to find that overlap and turn it into a plan.

syn-
Greek for "together"

The same root as sync and synergy. Things that work better side by side.

-ite
From "unite"

Bringing people into one group, whether that's for a brunch, a padel game or a crew that meets every week.

The logo

Two circles, you and them. The lime bit in the middle is where you overlap, and that's where Synite lives.

Four ways in

It's easier to make friends when there's a plan.

No swiping and no awkward cold intros. Pick how much you want to commit, from one coffee to a weekly crew.

What's the difference?

Plans, squads and circles do different jobs.

Testers kept asking this, so here it is in one table.

The signature feature

How a squad gets filled

Every five-a-side group chat has had the "anyone know someone?" panic. Squad Fill is built for that moment.

Step 1

A group posts the gap

Court booked, three confirmed, one dropped out at 4pm.

The group gets notified, and nobody has to cancel.

Stop saying "we should sometime". Start saying "see you there".

Questions

Fair questions

These are the plans for a real version. Tell us if any of them put you off.

Why is it called Synite?

"Syn" is Greek for together and "ite" comes from unite. Put them together and you get the point of the app: bringing people together around what they have in common. The logo is a Venn diagram, and the lime bit in the middle is the overlap.

Is this a real app?

Not yet. This is a clickable prototype to test whether the idea is worth building. Every person, plan and squad is invented, and nothing you do here contacts anyone.

How is this different from Meetup or Bumble BFF?

Meetup is built around big events and Bumble BFF is built around swiping. Synite mixes both: you can meet one person who shares your interests, or fill a specific gap in a group that's already happening tonight.

How would safety work?

The plan is ID-verified profiles, plans held in public venues, ratings after each meetup, and one-tap report and block. You'd see who's going before you commit.

Would it cost anything?

Free to join plans and circles. Hosts might pay a small fee to boost a squad spot, and venues could pay to list their own events.

Where would it launch?

London first, starting with East and Central, where there are lots of young professionals who've just moved to the city.
