Congregate — Bring online gatherings to life

2 min readJun 15, 2020

What are you working on this summer?

We’re building Congregate, an events platform to bring the spontaneity and personal nature of physical events online. COVID catalyzed a transition to online gatherings, but platforms like Zoom are too static to facilitate natural and fluid social interactions. Our events are centered around a lobby with tables which users can easily jump between. We’re exploring new ideas to replicate physical events online and developing features to be an end-to-end online events platform.

What are your goals for this project this summer?

While our vision will morph and features will change, our end goal is always to build a delightful events platform that makes users say, “wow, that event was even better than in-person”.
