RaveBae
A social app that connects ravers 30+.
The problem
Ravers over 30 go to the same shows but rarely find each other. Mainstream dating apps don’t know the scene, and meeting strangers around events can feel unsafe. RaveBae wanted one app for the community: find events, find the people going to them, and meet up safely.
Constraints
Built for a community, not a hookup app: matches come from shared music and shared events. Safety has to be one tap away, at the show and after it. Launch city by city, starting with a beta in Dallas. The AI has to work with more than one provider, so the product is never tied to a single vendor.

What we built
AI inside
RaveBae’s AI looks at what each person loves: the genres, the rave styles, the events they’re going to. From that it suggests people and events worth their time. The provider behind it can be switched by configuration, so the product is never tied to one AI vendor.
