Coffee near you, with people who live near you
A coffee is the lowest-stakes plan there is. An hour, somewhere public, and nobody has to commit to a whole evening with people they've just met.
Which is exactly why it's the one worth having. Nearly every friendship that starts locally starts with a coffee that went on longer than either person planned.
The hard part was never the coffee. It's that you can't message someone you haven't met yet.
Somebody suggests it. Neya does the rest.

What Neya does for coffee
- Puts you in a small group of people nearby who'd also like a coffee
- Picks a morning that works for most of them
- Suggests somewhere easy to find, and says who's coming
- Asks afterwards how it went, and gets the next one going
This is what it looks like

Any questions?
- Won't it be awkward meeting strangers for coffee?
- Less than you'd think, because nobody arrives cold. You'll have been in the group chat first, you'll know names and faces, and there are usually four or five of you rather than two, so no single conversation has to carry the hour.
- Who pays?
- Everyone buys their own. Neya plans don't handle money, and a coffee meetup is deliberately the kind of thing that costs whatever a coffee costs.
- Is this just for people who are new to the area?
- No, though a lot of people find Neya that way. Plenty of the regulars have lived on the same street for twenty years and simply never had a reason to meet the people three doors down.
