Problem
People often struggle to find like‑minded friends, activity partners, or compatible roommates because existing social apps focus on broad networks and lack tools for targeting specific relationship types.
Solution
M8 is a social platform that uses detailed personal profiles to generate matches for a variety of connection goals, such as best friends, gym partners, dinner companions, or roommates. Users build a profile that includes personality traits, interests, and preferences, which the system leverages to suggest relevant contacts. The app lets users define custom filter groups—called subsets—to narrow matches to the exact relationship they are seeking. Once matched, conversations are organized in an inbox that separates chats by subset, making it easy to manage multiple connection types within a single interface.
Target Audience
Primary users are individuals seeking purposeful social connections—such as friends, activity partners, or living companions—who want a focused, profile‑driven matching experience.
