Bring Your Own Friends — a curated social introduction platform where trusted friends nominate and present you, flipping the dating app model. Running bi-monthly events in Taipei.
BYOF — Bring Your Own Friends. A curated social introduction platform that inverts dating app logic.
Instead of writing your own profile, a trusted friend nominates you and speaks on your behalf. The tagline: "讓最懂你的人幫你說話" — Let the people who know you best speak for you.
How it works:
Currently running in Taipei with events on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month.
- A nominator writes a brief profile of a single friend they want to introduce
- At bi-monthly "簡報之夜" (Presentation Night) events, nominators give 3-minute live presentations
- Curated groups of 10-15 nominators per event ensure quality interactions
- Application-based access with screening — invite codes expedite approval
