The Easiest Way To Meet Someone New

Open Gatherly, say what you're doing, and sit in a live room with others doing something similar. No video, no profiles, no performance.
Hey PH!
We built Gatherly because meeting people online usually means profiles, bios, and performing a version of yourself. We wanted something simpler: say what you're doing right now, get dropped into a room with strangers doing something similar. No profiles, no video.
Free to use, no credit-card required.
Would love your feedback, questions, and ideas.
How does matching actually work in real time if there's no profile or pre-set interests, and what happens when two people end up in the same room doing totally different things?
How does the matching actually work when you say what you're doing, is it keyword based or does it pick up on more nuanced stuff like pacing or mood?
How does it actually match people into rooms, is it based on keywords or something more structured, and what happens when a room is empty?
Felt oddly calming to just drop in and work alongside strangers without the pressure of a face cam. Nice that nobody's curating a profile either, just the task at hand.
Felt surprisingly calming to just say what I'm up to and have strangers quietly join. The lack of video and profiles makes it way less awkward than I expected.
