Social Health starts with real connection.
spooned gets people off their screens and into curated real-life events. Braynex took it from concept to two live apps: mapped, built, and shipped to the App Store and Google Play.
We spend more time on screens and feel less connected.
Social and dating apps optimise for swiping, not meeting. The feed keeps you scrolling, but the connection rarely leaves the phone.
spooned flips it.
You meet people first, in real life, at curated events, and keep the connections that felt real.
What makes spooned different
An identity-verified, vetted community.
The people at the table are who they say they are. Verification and vetting happen up front, so the room feels calm and respectful before anyone arrives.
A moment of self-reflection, up front.
So you understand the kind of connection you are actually looking for, before you walk into the room.
Connection happens in person.
No endless chatting. Presence, body language and shared experience, the things a screen cannot carry.
The loop, off the screen and into the room.
Discover a curated event near you
Set your city and spooned surfaces gatherings built around a shared activity nearby: a cooking session, a walk, a table of six.
Show up, then reflect on what felt real
You meet face to face first. Afterwards, spooned asks you to pause and name the kind of connection you actually felt.
Keep the connections that clicked
Privately choose who you would like to stay in touch with. A conversation opens only when the interest is mutual.
The event is the product.
Everything else in spooned hangs off a real gathering. Members open the app to what is happening near them: what they have booked, who is hosting it, and when to show up. Reflection and connection only exist because the evening did.
Booked, not swiped
A seat with a time, an address and a price. Attending is a commitment, not a maybe, so the room is full of people who chose to be there.
Filtered by appetite
Dining, culture, wellness, sport. Members browse by the kind of evening they want, with spots-left urgency shown honestly rather than manufactured.
Hosts have a face
Every event carries its organizer: reviews, past evenings, a gallery. Trust comes from the curator, not from the platform.
A calm, considered product.
Onboarding, verification, curated events and the after-event connection flow, designed as one coherent world across iOS and Android.
From concept to two live apps.
Concept to two live apps
Product mapping, build, and shipping to both the App Store and Google Play, one coherent experience on two platforms.
A consumer product people use
Design polish, iOS and Android parity, and the real-world reliability a live consumer app depends on.
A partnership, not a handoff
After launch the engagement became an ongoing partnership, evolving the product alongside the team.
