The whole thing is a bad idea.

You’re looking to replicate a college campus experience but for the general public. That’s your first yellow flag so to speak.

The problem is that adults don’t live on college campuses and don’t really have the same socialization patterns. They’re not in a “safe” bubble where everyone they encounter has the commonality of attending the same admission-required school, where they have a baseline level of trust for random people like a college student has for the other people in their bubble. College students can get physically kicked off of campus for doing things against school policy that aren’t even at the level of being illegal. In real life I can be living next to a convicted sex offender and there’s nothing I can do about it besides move.

Your competitor is Facebook Groups, which is an absolute elephant in the space.

Your implementation so far feels creepy. You’re asking for location immediately on the marketing page (why?).

The marketing page seems to indicate that users are just going to disclose their exact current location and not be anonymous after the beta. The screenshots look like I’m going to reveal my location to strangers as a dot on a map. I don’t know if you’re really disclosing your users’ exact locations to each other or if they’re made more generalized but that seems like an immediate no thanks for just about anyone with any reasonable sense of threat evaluation.

I don’t mean this in a discriminatory way, but your founder profile seems to be “two nerdy male college students.”

Can I ask you: do you think women would want to disclose their semi-precise location to strangers on the Internet? What’s the male to female ratio on this campus discord server you’re looking to capture the vibe from?

You also say this experience is trying to replicate the close community you have on discord. Why am I not just using discord? Spoiler alert: I’m already using discord with local people in my area.

Amazing portfolio project, I’m just not vibing with it as a business idea.
