We'll help you figure where to go and what to do. Just ShowUp!

4-6 people, one table, one evening. Everyone came alone, and everyone leaves the room making new connections.

Show Up on a phone: a Board games group with chat, a venue, and members.

Most plans die at the thought of walking in alone. But not if everyone's alone.

  1. You tell us what you're into

    A few interests. That's all the matching needs.

  2. We put you with four or five people

    Small on purpose. Everyone came by themselves.

  3. You talk before you meet

    A group chat opens right away. You pick the place together.

  4. You show up

    We tell you where to go and who to look for. No scanning the room.

Before you get there, we give you one thing to ask.

Not an icebreaker for the table. One question, meant for one person in your group. Everyone gets one, and nobody sees anyone else's. So the first ten minutes have a job, and you're not the one who has to start.

Show Up on a phone: a private question to ask Theo, over a group chat.

Designed to feel safe, simple, and human.

Leave with people you actually want to see again.

After the meetup, choose who you would like to stay in touch with. Contact details are shared only when the choice is mutual, and nobody is told when it is not. No pressure, no awkward rejection — just a private way to continue a real connection.

Meet your people in San Francisco.

Join the waitlist and we will let you know when a new group is forming near you.
