Start Rallying

In development for iPhone and Android

Show up for something. Leave with a crew.

Rally is a free app for iPhone and Android that puts the pickup games, study sessions and jam nights around you on one map. Meet people in person, then keep the crew together online.

One loop, start to finish.

Rally is built around a simple loop: find something, show up, and keep the people worth keeping. Follow one pickup game from the map to a crew.

  1. 01 of 08

    Open the map

    Rally opens on a map of everything happening around you. The events that fit you best glow, so the good stuff is easy to spot.

  2. 02 of 08

    Pick something

    Tap a marker to see what it is, when it starts, and what you have in common with the people going.

  3. 03 of 08

    Join in one tap

    Joining opens the event's chat. Rally suggests an icebreaker from what you have in common, so saying hi is easy.

  4. 04 of 08

    Show up

    When it starts, the marker pulses. Put the phone away and play.

  5. 05 of 08

    The chat starts a clock

    When the event ends, its chat counts down 24 hours and then deletes itself for good. No dead group chats.

  6. 06 of 08

    Keep the crew?

    Before the chat disappears, everyone gets a nudge. If it clicked, keep the crew.

  7. 07 of 08

    A crew is born

    Everyone decides for themselves. The people who say yes become a crew in Online, with a chat that stays.

  8. 08 of 08

    Plan the next one

    Your crew posts the next game, and it lands on everyone's map with a line showing where the crew is heading. Then the loop starts again.

Find your people online, too.

Online Rally starts with Gaming. Pick a game, find a group that plays when you do, and the group chat stays for good. Crews you keep from real meetups live here too.

Safe to show up.

Rally helps people meet in person, so safety is part of the app, not an afterthought.

  • 18+

    Adults only

    Everyone confirms they're 18 or older and agrees to the community guidelines.

  • Public places

    Events happen at named public places, never at someone's home address.

  • Report and block

    Every message, event, group and profile can be reported or blocked.

  • A filter on everything

    Messages, event titles and group names pass through a word filter.

  • No tracking

    Rally uses your location only while the map is open and never shares it.

  • Chats that really delete

    Event chats and their photos are gone for good 24 hours after the event.

Built by students who wanted this to exist.

We're a small team of university students. We've all met great people at a pickup game or a late-night study session, then lost them to a group chat that went quiet.

Rally is how we'd fix that. Make it easy to find something happening nearby, and just as easy to keep the people you meet.
