Hey everybody, This is a fun little project I did in the fall. It lets you host a spontaneous coffee meetup from wherever you want. For remote employees, freelancers, or anyone who works from home, the day can get lonely because there aren't co-workers around. I built Popup to give these people a chance to have a fun social break in their day. Other users in the app can "subscribe" to your Popup, and if they do, they'll get a push notification every time you open. You get to control the message that goes in the push so you can tell people what's going on. There's messaging in the app to coordinate as well! Feel free to host a Popup from your startup's office, your apartment, or even at a coffee shop nearby. Hope you have fun with it.

@john_c_palmer This is a cool idea! ☕️Reminds me of what Sofar Sounds did for concerts.

@john_c_palmer funny I was thinking about something like this a couple days ago. I love that it's up and people are using it.

question: do people pay the hosts for coffee? Bc that'd be illegal, ya –– unless the hosts are certified by the city?

@harryasimon Ok, thank you! I was wondering if anyone was going to mention the health concerns. Who knows how these people live and what their standards of cleanliness are. A food handlers license ( about $9 bucks.. not so hard) is required, a food thermometer must be onsite, proper storage, even your water source has to be checked, plus insurance and a DOH inspection or enjoy the lawsuit as an unprotected company.

Hey there! Is this still being operated? The site is down and I can’t seem to find the app on the App Store. So sad!

Please include some detail on your website. A couple of screenshots, some use cases and a list of places where this would work would be great for me to decide if I should install the app. Let us not abandon the Web as a platform.

Maybe one improvement I would suggest for the website would be to include a screenshot on your home screen

Great idea, I like it a lot. Simple to use and a you can make a popup, without having it be open right away.

@john_c_palmer really fun idea! I just added our start-up space this morning & already got some interest, it might because so far we are the only ones in London ( & Europe altogether :)) but I am sure you'll scale quickly 😉
