About

Dating apps ask you to swipe through strangers who are miles away and weeks from ever meeting you. Ember does the opposite. Walk into a participating venue, join the room for the night, and see who else is actually there. Wave at someone, and if they wave back, you match, right there, in the same building.

Rooms last one night and one venue. There are no endless feeds, no distance sliders, no waiting three days for a reply. The people you see are the people you could walk up to, and a matched pair even gets a match drink to break the ice.

Ember is a PubCrush app, built with venues, for the kind of night out where the best thing that happens wasn't on your phone at all.
