Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Rinaldo, founder of WE ARE VERY. We're a multilingual copywriting and localization company based in LA — been around since 2005. This is not the product you'd expect us to build. Let me explain. When we rebranded in 2024, I looked at my team and wrote down who they are: very into cats, very guitar players, very opinionated, very multilingual. Then I stripped everything away and kept the thread: WE ARE VERY. The name stuck. Then it started doing something we didn't plan for. People kept filling in the blank. On merch, at events, in conversations — everyone immediately went "I'm very ___." At LocWorld54 (a localization conference in Monterey), we set up a booth and asked people to write what they're very about on plates. We took Polaroids. Almost 100 people did it. Strangers connected over their answers. The energy was wild. I drove home and thought: this needs to be an app. Eight weeks later, here it is. Built with React, Expo, and Supabase. What makes it different: 🔴 Communities, not followers. You declare what you're very about and join a group. No profile-chasing. 🔴 VERY reactions. No like button. You react with VERY Cool, VERY Interesting, VERY Sad, VERY Nice. Because we're a copywriting company and a thumbs up felt lazy. 🔴 Real-life events. Every community can host meetups. The goal is to get people off the app and into a room together. 🔴 Independent. Self-funded. No VC. No growth hacks. Built by a small creative team. We're a copywriting company that accidentally stumbled into social. We didn't set out to build a platform — we just asked the right question and couldn't stop thinking about the answer. We'd love your feedback. And we'd love to know: what are you very? 📸 The Polaroids that started it all: https://wearevery.com/locworld54
