LOS ANGELES, April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spontime, a new Social Networking Mobile App designed to make spontaneous meetings quick and easy, officially launches, offering the fastest way for people to get together in real life - without all of the social media and phone time consumption. Spontime is essentially the social media platform that enables users to spend less time on social media.
Shortly after its beta release, the app has garnered a $3.3 million valuation and significant media attention from Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Huffington Post, Digital Trends, and other international TV and radio shows. Spontime has received its first seed funding that has allowed the team to take the project to another level. Currently, the team is in the process of raising Series A funding of $4.2M for the company's further growth.
Spontime's Founder, 24-years-old Karolina Demiańczuk, aims to utilize technology for enhancing people's everyday lives through friendship, communication, and in-person gatherings. What pushed her to create Spontime were her broad experiences abroad. She has visited more than thirty countries and lived in three - Poland, the U.S. and Singapore, being able to compare lifestyles and behaviors of her peers around the world. „It does not matter if we are in America, Europe, Africa or Asia. With today's speed on life, inevitable digitalization, and globalization, it is harder to maintain real, in-person relationships." Founding Spontime, Demianczuk and her team want to make it as easy as possible to meet for spontaneous activities, such as jogging, lunch or coffee, and enjoy time together in the real life.
Spontime is all about being spontaneous and getting out now. The major difference between Spontime and all other existing apps is its speed in converting a match into a meeting. Because all activities take place within a day, no other app allows users to meet other people so quickly and efficiently. The average conversion rate from match-to-meeting on other popular apps, such as Tinder, equals 0.8%. That means less than one percent of matches meet offline. "Spontime's central friendship and connectivity theme is undoubtedly resonating with millions of millennials worldwide who are tired of the tech wall built up around in-person activity and friendship," said Karolina Demianczuk, founder and president of Spontime. "The app is especially useful for those traveling and moving to new places who want to meet people quickly and easily."
There are several different ways to use the Spontime app. Users create a ^spontag on the app to meet for coffee, lunch, jogging, or anything else they would like. Their friends and people nearby will be able to see what they are up to, and either join or not. Additionally, Spontime gives users the opportunity to make new friends and meet new people. If users are not sure what they are up for, they can join others in their activities. Most importantly, the meeting happens within a day.
As opposed to most dating apps, Spontime does not match users with people based on pure appearance. Spontime matches users with other people based on their common interests and activities they want to meet for. If they share many commonalities with their suggested matches, chances are they will enjoy each other's company and have lots to talk about. Worth emphasizing is the fact that Spontime is not a dating app - it is a spontaneous activity, platonic, friendship app.
Spontime is targeted at millennials because it strives to help these young, social media enthusiasts connect with each other in real time. With Spontime, there is no pressure to chat for days or weeks, make a plan to meet, and then decide whether or not users actually want that meet to happen. Once users create a ^spontag on the app and people join them, the meeting happens today. The app forces millennials to truly live in the moment. Spontime has a clear vision to change the swiping game, and enable millennials to fearlessly and effortlessly meet people in real life.
Spontime is available worldwide on the App Store and Google Play Store.
