What You Might Be Wondering:
-
We wear many hats throughout the day, and no static profile can fully capture who we are. With Met, we believe you should get to reveal who you are through real conversations, not a profile on a screen.
Instead, you select roles that reflect your intentions in each space. Whether you're looking for a business opportunity, a new friend, or something else entirely, your roles tell Met whom you'd like to meet. Our complementary matching algorithm does the rest, identifying potential connections nearby and facilitating introductions when both people opt in.
-
Yes! In fact, we encourage it. The more roles you select, the greater your chances of finding someone with a complementary role in the room. You may also be interested in meeting people for different reasons, depending on where you are. With Met, you decide which roles best reflect your intentions in each space.
-
Because Met has no feeds or profiles, your presence in a space isn't visible to everyone. Only people identified as potential connections based on your complementary roles can discover that you're there. You remain private to everyone else, giving you control over how and when you connect.
-
Met doesn’t rely on advertising as a business model, so we have no incentive to collect personal data for targeted ads or keep users engaged through feeds and direct messages. Our focus is on facilitating meaningful connections in real life, not keeping you on your phone.
At conferences and professional events, Met provides organizers with aggregated analytics on attendees’ professional roles and introductions made, helping them understand the value of connections facilitated at their events without exposing individual activity or private conversations.
-
Met was designed to encourage positive, respectful interactions while minimizing opportunities for trolling or harassment. After an introduction, users are asked just three simple questions: Did the person accurately represent their intentions? Did the conversation align with what you expected? And did you feel safe?
There are no public ratings, written reviews, or comment sections. This approach helps us maintain a safer environment while protecting your privacy and keeping the focus on real human connections.
-
Met facilitates the introduction, but what happens next is up to you. We encourage real-world relationships, so you decide how to stay in touch, whether by exchanging phone numbers, email addresses, or social media profiles, just as you would when meeting someone naturally.
And you'll never have to wonder who you met or where. Met saves your connections in the app, allowing you to add personal notes and easily find people again using filters, including where you met them. No DMs, no feeds, just a record of real connections you can build on.
-
You decide privately whether you'd like to meet someone, and an introduction only happens when both people opt in. If the timing isn't right, you can choose to share contact information instead and connect later. And if someone doesn't respond or chooses not to connect, don't take it personally. There are countless reasons someone might not be available or interested in meeting at that moment. Met makes introductions possible without creating pressure or expectations.
-
Met lets you make yourself invisible whenever you want a break from suggested connections. This way, you can focus on what you're doing without others assuming you're not interested in meeting them.
You're also automatically taken "out of the room" when you're in a conversation. Unlike digital platforms that prioritize the number of connections, Met is designed for real-world interactions, where people don't line up waiting to speak with you. While you're connecting with someone, you're temporarily invisible to the matching algorithm. Once your conversation ends, you're automatically back in the space and available for new introductions.
It's about quality connections, not quantity, and respecting everyone's time and attention.
How Your Attendees And Members Use Met
In Membership Spaces
People come to networking events to connect with others. With Met as the networking component of the event application, meeting people becomes part of their day, over coffee between panels, during networking sessions and in the hallways. Those introductions can also lead to evening plans with others at the conference, instead of spending the evening in their hotel room. Met helps attendees make the most of their time, pursue their goals efficiently and build relationships with the people they meet.
At conventions and expos, attendees make clear who they’d like to meet, and Met helps them find and connect with relevant vendors and exhibitors. They can focus their time on the booths and conversations aligned with their needs, making the most of their visit.
You choose to work from coffee shops or co-working spaces because you want to meet other people instead of feeling isolated at home. Met helps you do that in ways that reflect what you need that day, finding clients, exchanging ideas or commiserating with peers. The people sharing your space could also become friends, neighbors you get to know or a potential romantic partner. You can be open to professional and personal connections at the same time, then meet face to face and discover what those relationships could become.
At an airport lounge, the time before your flight can become an opportunity to meet someone who needs your skills, someone you could hire or a peer you’d enjoy talking with. Met brings relevant people to your attention and facilitates an introduction when you both want to meet. That conversation gives you the chance to discover whether there’s potential for a reciprocal relationship, through work, collaboration, friendship or shared interests. A connection made between flights could become a relationship that continues well beyond your trip.
