Network casually and meet offline. Make new friends. Escape the phone screen.
Escape is the app for people who actually want to meet people, not just scroll past them. Join local communities, find events worth leaving the house for, and connect with the people you vibe with at events. Turn every "we should hang out sometime" into a time and a place.
Built for anyone tired of performative networking and feeds full of strangers.
COMMUNITIES
Five distinct types, each with their own tools: Venues, Businesses, Organizers, Universities, and Instructors. Rich profiles with photo galleries, opening hours, amenities, and paid services. Custom member types. Join policies that actually work. Ban/unban, audit logs, announcements, polls, and reviews. A dedicated management hub for community leaders.
VIBE
Anonymous until mutual. The person you vibe never finds out unless they vibe you back. No read receipt. No rejection signal. Only matches exist, so you can vibe the people you're actually curious about without the weight of potential embarrassment. Send a Vibe to someone you met at an event with social, platonic, or romantic intent. If they vibe back, you match and a private conversation opens. Super Vibes premium tier for standout signals.
AI COMPATIBILITY
A compatibility engine scored across 8 dimensions: shared interests, social proximity, location, career, language, behavior, communication style, and personal values. Discover People surfaces compatible matches from your events and communities. Tap any connection for a full report with per-dimension breakdown. Preferences Hub with sliders and prompts. 19 profile fields with per-section privacy controls.
