Holler
A real-life social app where users broadcast ("holler") where they'll be and when — e.g. "I'm going to be at the farmer's market at 2pm" — and friends can simply show up if they feel like it. There are no invitations, no RSVP requirements, and no schedule coordination, removing the friction of organizing plans and of making or waiting for excuses. Currently iOS-only, with an Android app in development.
What it addresses
Inviting friends to things and coordinating schedules is socially awkward and full of friction — coming up with acceptable excuses, waiting on responses, and juggling everyone's conflicting calendars often kills spontaneous in-person hangouts.

“So I made Holler, which is basically you hollering to your friends, "I'm going to be at the farmer's market at 2pm," and then you just go. If they show up, fantastic. If not, whatever, you were going to go anyway. No coordination, no invitations, no friction. Just holler and go. It's iOS only for now, but I'm working on an Android app as you read this, so hopefully that's coming soon.”
