Make friends
Making friends as an adult is hard because nothing puts you in the same room as the same people anymore. Brane shows you the people, group chats and events around you that share what you're into, so the next step is a conversation.
Free. iPhone, Android and browser. 18 and over.
Why it's easier on Brane
Message anyone on Brane, and anyone can reach you from your profile link. No phone number needed.
Crowds are group chats for every interest, from run clubs to board games, so you can read along first and join in when something suits you.
Find events within 100km, from social runs to trivia nights, each with its own chat that starts before you arrive.
How it works

Type any interest, from Formula 1 to sourdough, and Brane shows you who else nearby is into it.

See people, Crowds and events around you on a live map, or search any city in the world.
3
Message someone, join a Crowd, or go to an event. Keep showing up and the strangers stop being strangers.
Just moved, or just visiting?
Moved to a new city? Join the Crowds for what you loved back home and you'll have a few familiar faces within a week. Travelling? Look around a city before you land with Brane Teleport, and arrive already knowing a few names.
Yes. Brane is free on iPhone, Android and the web, with no ads.
No. Brane is for friendship, community and shared interests, with no swiping and no friend requests.
No. You sign in with your email and a six digit code, and other people only see your username.
Start with a group. Join a Crowd for something you're into or go to an event nearby, so you're never relying on one stranger. Meet in public places the first few times.
Brane is for people 18 and over.
