Social isolation has reached a pandemic level, with people losing essential in-person connections. This decline in companionship poses serious risks to mental health and has been linked to increased suicide rates among teens.

Pie proposes a unique social app that facilitates spontaneous social interactions and activities, transforming the current landscape of social media feeds into a platform that fosters real-life connections.

The app, featuring a magic-like experience in planning social events, utilizes AI to enhance interactions. Key functions include plan-making, user recommendations, and community-driven events to engage users meaningfully.

With a view to capturing a portion of a $154 billion market impacted by social isolation, Pie aims to become a billion-dollar player similar to Airbnb and Uber, enhancing socialization in physical spaces.

Pie monetizes through both enterprise and consumer offerings, focusing on creating paid events and a powerful creator fund to enhance user-generated experiences.

Led by founder Andy Dunn, a seasoned entrepreneur with a track record of success, the team comprises experienced professionals with diverse backgrounds in tech, design, and operations, committed to restoring social connections.

The growth trajectory for Pie has shown promising results, aiming for 50,000 monthly active users by the end of the year, with high retention rates amongst users attending multiple events.

With a compelling mission to combat social isolation, Pie stands poised at the intersection of technology and community, driving meaningful human interactions.
