We built Hooked because nobody knew who was single.
What started as a class project became something much bigger
The first version of Hooked started as a business school project after noticing the same social problem at every event we attended.
We tested the idea at real events and quickly saw strangers actually meeting, conversations starting faster, and people staying longer because they finally knew who was open to connecting.
That early reaction made us realize this wasn't just a school project anymore.
Our mission
We imagine a world where people talk again.
Where you don't need a swipe to start something.
Where "we met at that event" becomes the norm, not the exception.
And Hooked is how we make that happen.
