Bubls.

Swipe, match, and you’re actually going together.

The app

The Bubls app on an iPhone: an event card for a Women's Chess Meet-Up on Thursday 29 October at 18:00, with a Bock! button to commit and a cross to skip.

Bubls is an iPhone app where you swipe through events and activity ideas, match with friends or stranger-friends who want the same thing, and commit on the spot: the clique forms around the event.

Swipe for interest. One button commits you. Four steps at most, two per person. The tech stays hidden behind familiar swipes.

It is my own product, and it has been in my head for years.

Why it exists

Why

The problem: Making plans means back and forth in group chats. And people don’t hear about what’s happening around them.
Who it’s for: Urban people in Zürich with money, little time, and the wish for an active social life.

Built

My part: I built it with AI agents: the iPhone app, the server, and the pipeline that collects events in Zürich.

Where it goes: Think Spotify Discover Weekly, but for real-life activities. The vision: it doesn’t only find events, it finds people with similar interests and matches them into a clique.
The open risk: Whether the problem exists is still untested. A user questionnaire is what I need to confirm or disprove it.

The aim is to be the best event recommender available. A high ambition, but doable.

The hard part is recommending the right event. If that doesn’t work, Bubls is just an RSVP thing.
