Questions, before the first table.

A way to meet a few people in person without a crowd. Members create or join tiny gatherings — up to five people — with a clear plan and a clear time. Creating an event doesn't put you in it; you join like anyone else if you're going.

No. Plans are group gatherings, not dates, and there is no matching or swiping. People come to talk to a few people at once.

Five is the largest group that still holds one conversation. Above it a table splits and someone ends up outside it; below three, one cancellation ends the evening.

Joining Valentree is free during early access. You pay for your own coffee, ticket, or picnic contribution, and nobody charges for a seat.

Tap Join while a spot is open. Joining is instant up until the event starts. Once you join, the event chat opens and the exact address is shared with you.

Yes — creating an event doesn't add you to it. Join it like anyone else if you're going, and leave the same way if your plans change.

Yes, any time before the event starts, and everyone in the plan is told. Once it starts, the plan is set — with four other people counting on you, reliability is the whole product.

Yes, once you join. The event page shows who else has joined to the people in the event, and people who chose to be shown appear before you join too. Once you are in, you can talk to the group before you arrive.

Any member with a verified phone and a profile photo. Every new event is screened before it goes live. Creating an event.

In public places. Cafes, parks, markets and galleries make better first plans than living rooms.

No. Creating it doesn't add you to the group — join it if you're going. Until it starts you can change any detail, open or close spots, remove someone or cancel it, and everyone who joined hears about each change to the details.

Phone verification plus a real profile with a real photo. Profiles that look fake do not get approved.

No. Valentree provides product safeguards, reporting, and community expectations, but meeting in person always requires personal judgment. Read the Safety tips before attending.

The people who joined, and the person who created the event. Public listings show the neighborhood and the meeting area, never the full address.

A person reviews it. You can report how someone behaved at an event you shared — and blocking is silent: the other member is not told. Safety tips.

When the browser hands an event link to an installed app, it opens the plan in Valentree. Otherwise, the browser shows the event fallback and keeps the same event URL intact.

When the browser hands a post link to an installed app, it opens the post in Valentree. Otherwise, the browser shows a page to open or install the app; the post itself is never shown on the web.

We are opening city by city, starting in Washington. Tell us where you are and we will let you know when there are enough members nearby to fill a table.

Install Valentree from the App Store or Google Play and set up your profile. Early members help shape the first small tables.
