Building Buddito — friends via iMessage

About

Making friends as an adult shouldn't require another app. I'm building Buddito — an AI that lives in iMessage, finds you a real friend, checks that you both want the intro, and introduces you like a mutual friend would. Free to start at buddito.com. Always happy to talk about social products, AI agents, and why the world needs fewer swipes and more group chats.

Buddito - A friend that texts you a friend

Buddito is an AI friend-matcher that lives entirely in iMessage — no app to download, no profiles to swipe. Text it the kind of friend you're looking for (a running buddy, a fellow founder, someone new in town). It finds a real person who fits, checks that both sides want the intro, then opens a group chat to introduce you — like a mutual friend would. Free to start.
