Community is a place
The map is the home screen. You see venues and open plans within your travel zone — transit time, not miles.

Friendship
on your
stoop.
Stoop is a hyperlocal friendship app built around neighborhoods, small plans, and repeated low-stakes hangs. Not a dating app. Not a feed.
Founding Friends get first invites, free Stoop Socials, and a say in the Code.

Three things we believe
You join plans, not profiles
Three open plans and five nearby people a day. No swipe deck, no infinite scroll, no popularity scores.
Comfort is a right
Private comfort filters, safe-space badges, hosts who set the vibe, and human moderation within 24 hours.
Open plans this week
Real hangs from the launch neighborhoods. Spots, transit time and space settings up front.

- #1Friendship first — but Stoop isn't a chaperone.
- #2Respect the room and whatever the host set as the vibe.
- #3Take no for an answer, the first time.

- #6If someone says a space isn't for you, don't push.
- #7Be the friend you'd want to find.
