A new kind of social

Where meaningful connections begin

Bonfire groups you with people you are truly compatible with. Small groups. Real bonds. Not another feed.

The problem

High connectivity. Low depth.

Modern social platforms optimized for scale, not substance. The result is a world of shallow interactions and missed connections.

Too many weak ties

Hundreds of connections, but none that go deep.

No compatibility layer

Current platforms match on proximity, not personality.

Meaningful bonds are rare

Forming new relationships online feels hollow.

Offline is random

Meeting people in person lacks any compatibility signal.

How it works

Three steps to your Bonfire

01

Create your signal profile

Share your interests, intentions, personality indicators, and behavioral signals. Bonfire generates a compatibility embedding unique to you.

02

Get matched into a Bonfire

Our algorithm groups you into a small cohort of ~4 highly compatible people. Small enough for intimacy. Large enough for group dynamics.

03

Build real familiarity

Chat digitally inside your Bonfire. Let trust develop naturally. Validate your compatibility over time, not through a single swipe.
