Whats this all about?

Making a story and creating chemistry. At ByChance we missed the moments where people connected offline, so we created chances. Chances are semi to fully curated experiences that provide an opportunity to meet compatible people in natural environments.

Building your Profile

Lets get acquianted. The first thing is a conversation with our harmonizing agent we call "Lucky". Lucky will build a profile with you through organic conversation. That information then flows through the architecture of ByChance to create curated matches and events.

Designing the Chance

A chance is an authentic event to naturally meet compatible people. It will come in the form of invitation to a coffee shop, bar, museum or any third space your profile matches. It is when time, place and person converge.

The Chance

This is not a blind date, you belong to a blind cluster. A cluster is a group of compatible matches that have decided to take the same chance.
 
There are no public profiles in ByChance, clusters can communicate through hints if they choose or stay anonymous and vibe it out. Keep your eyes and minds open and when ready, make your move to create a life-long memory.
