Why interests work

A natural icebreaker is built in.

Meshup does not connect you through empty profile browsing. It starts with what you genuinely want to do, giving every interaction a useful context.

Instant common ground
You already share an activity, topic, or goal.

From interest to plan
Every interest can lead to people, communities, and events.

Trust, built in

Knowing who is real should feel simple.

Merits reward real participation—showing up, hosting responsibly, and contributing—so confidence can build naturally over time.

Earned, not bought

Merits come from meaningful activity, not from looking popular online.

Safer first meetups

Participation history helps people make more informed decisions before committing their time.

Safety and control

Reporting, blocking, women-only Pulse options, guidelines, and support remain close at hand.

Philipp, founder of Meshup
Why I built Meshup

“Making real friends took two years. Every single time.”

Twenty years. Four cities. Four countries—Singapore, Zürich, New York, and Cologne.

Every time I moved, work settled in within months. But finding real friends—people to run with, grab a drink with, or simply do life with—took two years.

Then I realized it was not just me. Expats, locals, people new in town, and even people who had lived somewhere for years were still missing their group.

Meshup exists to turn shared interests into real plans, so meeting people can feel natural again.

Is Meshup live already?

Is it free to join?

What is the difference between a Pulse and a Signal?

A Pulse helps people make a spontaneous real-life plan. A Signal shares something relevant with an Interest or Community and starts a discussion.

Can I control who sees what I share?

Yes. Visibility depends on what you create and where you share it. Meshup explains the selected audience before you publish.

How does Meshup support safer meetups?
