The app

How Avenue3 works.

A friendship app built around three simple ideas: what you love to do, when you're actually free, and showing up for real plans.

🤝

Avenue3 is not a dating app. No swiping for romance, no hookup culture, no engagement bait. Think neighborhood block party, not Tinder. Every design decision was made with that in mind.

The 3-by-3 Profile

3

Photos

Real photos of you — no filters required. Just actual people being themselves.

3

Activities

The three things you actually love to do. Hiking, board games, tacos — whatever's real for you.

3

Time slots

When you're genuinely free. Saturday mornings, weekday evenings — times you'd actually say yes.

Smart, intentional matching

Automatic match detection

If you share at least one activity AND one available time with someone nearby, Avenue3 considers you a match. No swiping required — it finds the overlap for you.

👍

Yay or Nay — privately

Each person independently decides. If you both say Yay, a messaging thread opens. If either says Nay, nothing happens — no notification, no awkwardness.

📅

Plans, not promises

Once connected, propose a real hangout with three actual dates. Your match picks one. No "we should hang sometime" energy — just real plans with real people.

📍

Radius-based, Austin-only

Matching is based on real proximity — default 10 miles, adjustable by you. Launching in Austin, TX first, because this city deserves it.

Matches, Groups, and Events

Avenue3 gives you three different paths to Messages and Plans — however you like to connect.

Matches

The classic Avenue3 flow. Share activities and availability, get matched one-on-one, say Yay or Nay, and plan a real hangout.

👥

Groups

Create a group activity for three or more people. You set the activity, others join. Same outcome — real plans, real people — just bigger.

🎪

Events

RSVP to ACL Music Festival and browse other attendees. Message them, coordinate a meetup, and show up together.

Three avenues, one city

🧍

Individual

Flying solo and looking for your Austin crew. Whether you're new to town or just ready to expand your circle.

Couple

You and your partner want couple friends to explore Austin with. We've got you.
