About Plus 1

What is Plus 1?
A plans-first social app.

Members post real plans. Other members request to join. The host approves who's a fit and you meet up. Active in Miami and South Florida.

The short answer

Plus 1 is a plans-first social app for dating, friends, and networking. Instead of swiping on profiles, members post a specific plan, such as a brunch, a yacht day, a workout, a gallery night, or a networking event, and other members request to join. The host approves one person and you meet up in real life. Plus 1 is free to download, active in Miami and South Florida, and built around real connections rather than endless chat.

The problem we set out to solve

Modern social apps are built for endless scrolling and shallow connection. On the average dating app, it takes hundreds of swipes to get a handful of matches and one actual meeting. People are exhausted. They want to do real things with real people, not type "hey" into the void.

Making friends as an adult in a new city is hard. Networking events feel transactional. Going to dinner or a gallery opening alone can feel awkward. And group chats with friends often boil down to "we should do something" without anyone actually planning it.

How Plus 1 works

Plus 1 starts with the plan. Post a dinner reservation, a yacht day, a Formula 1 ticket, a wine tasting, a gallery opening, a tech meetup. Anyone in your city can request to join. You approve who's a fit, you meet up, you make a memory.

No swiping. No bots. No vibes-based small talk. Verified profiles. Shared interests. And a clear signal on what each person is looking for: friendship, networking, or dating.

Who Plus 1 is for

Plus 1 works for three kinds of moments:

  • Dating. Skip the awkward coffee. Meet over a real experience, then decide if there's a spark.
  • Friends. New to the city, freshly single, or tired of the same circle. Find people who like what you like.
  • Networking. Walk into the event with someone. Leave with new contacts and a real connection.

How Plus 1 is different from other apps

vs. Hinge, Bumble, Tinder

Those are profile-first. You scroll faces, hope to chat, and maybe meet weeks later. Plus 1 is plan-first. You commit to the thing first, then meet the person.

vs. Bumble BFF

BFF is still swipe-then-chat. Plus 1 lets you go straight from "I'm doing this Saturday" to "you're approved, see you there."

vs. Meetup

Meetup is group-based and many events are organizer-led. Plus 1 is one-on-one (or small group) and member-driven, with approval control.

vs. Partiful / Eventbrite

Those are RSVP tools for events you already know about. Plus 1 surfaces the plans nearby you would never have found.
