01 · Match
Not every connection starts the same way.
Whether you’re looking for friendship, dating or both, create a separate discovery profile for each within one account. No juggling multiple apps or inboxes.

You’re always starting over.
We make the restart easy.
A new city. A breakup. A best friend who moves away.
Life changes, and sometimes our social circles change with it.
Build your inner circle: meet people, discover events and capture the candid moments along the way. Turn your nights out into photobooks you’ll look back on.
From parasocial to social.
How it works
From a swipe to a night you’ll remember.
It takes about 50 hours together to make a friend. Here’s how Parasocial gets you there.
02 · Meet in person
Met them for real? Scan their code.
Scan each other’s personal QR codes to turn a match into a connection. Their profile ring turns purple, marking them as someone you’ve met in real life. Every scan grows your inner circle.
03 · Hangouts
Tick off your bucket list. Meet your people doing it.
Find what’s happening near you. Post the thing you’ve always meant to do, or join something spontaneous tonight. Joining a hangout adds you to the group chat, where you can organise your plans and say hi before meeting in person.
04 · Your own disposable
Everyone gets their own camera.
Scan the hangout’s QR code to get your own disposable camera, loaded with 5–20 shots. Capture the night as you see it: the candid moments, the funny ones and everything in between.
When the photos drop, everyone’s rolls are revealed together. One night, everyone’s perspective.
05 · The photobook
Then the night goes in your photobook.
Turn your hangouts into lasting memories. Save your favourite moments to your photobook, share them on your profile and with your community.
See what your friends have been up to, discover new faces and find your way into the next hangout.
From parasocial to social.
