Meet first.
Someone's already interested.
We make the introductions.
You'll know in ten minutes, not ten texts.
How the night goes. Five moments from a recent evening, 7:00–9:15pm.
No clipboards, no musical chairs —
Know who you're meeting next.
We make the intros, you enjoy the evening.
You'll always know who to meet next.
The rest feels like a party.
Browse, grab a drink, and move around the room. We keep the introductions flowing without the speed-dating shuffle.

Step 1: Download the app. Share a few real things about yourself.
Step 2: Sign up for an event: Find upcoming events in the Asaya app or on Eventbrite. We expect most evenings to bring together 40–50 people. If fewer than 20 attend, your ticket is on us: we’ll refund you, and the event will still go ahead as planned.
Step 3: Tell us a couple people you're interested in — you'll be given matches at the event based on who you're interested in or what you share: your favorite books, how you lean.
Step 4: Meet your 4-6 introductions at the event: you'll have ten minutes to talk to each person one-on-one, and plenty of time to meet other people.
Step 5: After the event, chat with people you met and plan your one-on-one date through the Asaya app.
