AI-Powered Activity Matching
Create activities with AI, find reliable people, and build trust through actions
Finding Friends as an Adult is Hard
Making new friends gets harder after school. Whether you've moved to a new city, graduated, or your existing friends don't share your hobbies anymore - finding like-minded people can feel impossible.
New to the City
Moved to Oslo for work but don't know anyone who shares your love for hiking.
Solo Hobbies
Want to learn photography but going to photo walks alone feels awkward.
Interest Mismatch
Love board games but your friends prefer bars and clubs.
How Hobbyist Solves This
AI-powered activity creation and smart matching based on reliability, not just profiles.
Chat with AI Activity Buddy
Just tell our AI what you want to do. It handles the rest - no forms, no hassle.
- Natural conversation: "I want to go hiking Saturday"
- AI extracts time, location, and activity details
- Or use the traditional manual form if you prefer
- Review and adjust before publishing
AI Finds Perfect Participants
Our smart algorithm matches you with people who fit your activity perfectly.
- Analyzes interests, location, and reliability
- Shows top 3-5 compatible users with badges
- Considers skill levels and availability patterns
- Prioritizes reliable participants (Gold/Silver badges)
