Problem
Current social media platforms often prioritize content consumption and broad broadcasting over facilitating genuine, in-person connections. This can lead to users feeling disconnected from their immediate social circles and missing opportunities for spontaneous meetups.
Solution
Mozi is a private social network designed to help users reconnect with their friends in real life. The platform allows users to share their upcoming plans and see which of their contacts are in town or attending the same events. By providing visibility into overlapping social schedules, Mozi aims to facilitate more frequent and spontaneous in-person interactions. The app focuses on privacy, ensuring that shared information is only visible to mutual contacts and can be further restricted to close friends.
Target Audience
Mozi targets individuals seeking to strengthen their real-world relationships and increase spontaneous social interactions with their existing network of friends.
