## 1. What MeetWho is

MeetWho is a professional networking platform organized around **people and relationships**, not events. It answers one question for every user, at every event they attend:

> **Who should I meet, and why?**

MeetWho covers the full arc of a professional relationship:

1. **Discover** — the platform surfaces specific people you should meet.
2. **Understand why** — every recommendation includes a written reason, mutual value, and shared interests.
3. **Request** — send a short, gated intro request (not unlimited DMs).
4. **Meet** — in person, via QR scan, or via a scheduled MeetWho video meeting.
5. **Remember** — private notes, tags, "what we discussed", and where you met.
6. **Follow up** — reminders tied to real relationships, not calendar noise.

Around that loop MeetWho ships the full networking layer for an event: 250-seat MeetWho Meetings (video), per-event and per-calendar group chats, availability + booking calendar, Organization Calendars for communities, scan check-in with the attendee's personal QR, automated event reminders (T-24h / T-3h / T-30m) and post-event feedback collection.

## 2. How MeetWho differs from other event tools

| Product | Center of gravity |
| --- | --- |
| Luma | Events, RSVPs, calendars |
| Brella | Scheduled 1:1 meetings |
| Grip | Enterprise matchmaking + lead capture |
| Swapcard | All-in-one event app |
| Whova | Event community + engagement |
| EventMobi | Branded event apps |
| Popl | Digital business cards after meeting |
| Zoom / Google Meet | Isolated video calls |
| **MeetWho** | **People, introductions, video meetings, group channels and relationship memory across events and communities** |

MeetWho is not another event app. It is the *networking intelligence layer* people bring with them to any event — plus the meeting rooms, group channels and reminders that used to require three separate tools.

## 3. Product surfaces

Every route below is a real page on `https://meetwho.app`.

### 3.1 Home (`/home`, authenticated)
"What to do right now." Shows the next event with ticket, ranked people to meet, incoming intro requests, upcoming in-person meetings, pending follow-ups, and profile completion state. Header carries a personal QR button and a real-time notifications bell.

### 3.2 Who to Meet (`/who-to-meet`, authenticated)
The core product. Prioritized human recommendations, each rendered as a card with:
- Name, headline, city.
- **Why you should meet** — a written paragraph, not a score.
- **Mutual value** — what each person can help with.
- **Shared interests** — expertise tag overlap.
- **A good place to start** — a suggested opener.
- Actions: Request an intro · Save · Not relevant.

Fit is expressed qualitatively: `Strong fit`, `Complementary goals`, `Shared interests`, `Worth meeting`. Percentages are deliberately avoided.

### 3.3 Events (`/events`, authenticated)
Tabs: `Upcoming`, `Past`, `Saved`, `Hosting`. Each event card highlights **people relevant to you**, not just headcount. Country + city filters, defaulting to the user's profile location.

### 3.4 Event Detail (`/events/{slug}`, public)
8-character alphanumeric slugs (e.g. `/events/95odbszf`), language-neutral. Sections: Overview, Who to Meet (event-scoped), People (with filters like Founders, Investors, Hiring, Looking for work), Schedule, Info, Group Chat, Scan Check-in. Post-RSVP: add to Google/Outlook/iCal, invite a friend, cancel. Organizers can attach a MeetWho video meeting in one click and add co-hosts with full admin rights. Feedback is collected automatically after the event ends.

### 3.5 Organization Calendars (`/calendars/{slug}`, public + `/calendars` authenticated)
Public calendars grouping a community's recurring events. Subscribers get:
- Every new event pushed to them.
- Auto-created group channel in Messages.
- Email beacons when a new event is published (via Resend).
- A 6-tab organizer console: Overview, Events, Subscribers, Newsletters, Beacons, Insights.

### 3.6 Calendar (`/calendar`, authenticated)
Personal availability and booking. Set open hours, share a booking link, and sync attended events + scheduled meetings to Google, Outlook or iCal.

### 3.7 Meetings (`/meetings`, authenticated / `/meetings/{id}` join by link)
MeetWho video rooms, powered by LiveKit. Up to 250 participants. Features:
- Adaptive 16:9 stage that reshapes as people join (Meet/Zoom-style, with spotlight and screen-share modes).
- Host moderation: mute audio, stop video/screen share, remove participants, end for everyone.
- Screen sharing + click-to-fullscreen spotlight on any tile.
- Persistent chat (`meeting_messages`) with @mentions, replies, reactions and file attachments — same UI as `/messages`.
- Guest join with just a display name; members join with their MeetWho identity, avatar and headline.
- Email invites via Resend, calendar entries on both sides, T-24h / T-3h / T-30m reminders.
- Mobile-first UI with full-screen overlays for chat and people.

### 3.8 Network (`/network`, authenticated)
Relationship memory. Tabs: `All`, `Connections`, `Met`, `Contacts`, `Saved`, `Follow-ups`. Distinct states are preserved end-to-end:

| State | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| Saved | You bookmarked the person one-way. |
| Requested | Intro request sent. |
| Connected | Request accepted. |
| Met | Both parties confirmed an in-person meeting (usually via QR). |
| Contact Shared | Contact info shared with consent. |
| Follow-up Due | A scheduled next step exists. |

Manual contacts can be added with a country → city cascading picker.

### 3.9 Messages (`/messages`, authenticated)
Request-gated 1:1: before connection, one short intro request (max ~300 chars); after acceptance, full DM with a persistent context strip. Also hosts:
- **Event group channels** — one per event you RSVP to.
- **Organization Calendar channels** — one per calendar you subscribe to.
- **Mentions** — `@name` (with picker showing name / photo / role), `@all` for broadcasts. Mentioned users get a targeted notification.
- Replies, emoji reactions, attachments (images and files).
- Real-time via Supabase Realtime.

### 3.10 Profile (`/profile`, authenticated editor)
Not a résumé. Fields: photo, name, `@username`, headline, company, role, city, short bio, **currently working on**, **looking for** (co-founder, investor, customer, partner, mentor, job, talent, supplier, community, feedback), **can help with** (product, marketing, sales, fundraising, design, engineering, hiring, community, international expansion), expertise tags, projects, work experience, links (LinkedIn, X, GitHub, website, Calendly).

### 3.11 Public Profile (`/@username`, public)
Every user gets a shareable public URL: `meetwho.app/@username`. Shows headline, currently building, looking for, can help with, projects, social links, and a QR card. Hidden by default: phone, email, private notes, messages, saved people, full event history, calendar, connection graph.

### 3.12 QR
One base identity, per-event intent. Inside an event, the QR encodes the event-scoped card; outside, it opens the public profile. Scanning creates a mutual `met` encounter and can trigger an instant connect nudge on the other person's device. Organizers scan the same QR at the door for check-in — no separate ticket required.

### 3.13 Notifications (`/notifications`)
Grouped: Introductions, Messages, Events, Follow-ups, Meetings, Product. Real-time in-app bell in the header + web push via the MeetWho PWA. No spammy "profile viewed" pings.

### 3.14 Settings (`/settings`)
Account, Preferences (theme, language, time zone), Payment. Visibility controls per field (email, phone, LinkedIn, calendar), per event, and per message channel. Data export and account deletion. Localized for 30+ languages.

### 3.15 Pricing & subscription (`/pricing`)
Free core product. **MeetWho Plus** subscription (billed via Polar) unlocks power-networker features (attachments in group chats, higher discovery weight, extended follow-up automation). Payment webhooks handled by internal server functions.

### 3.16 PWA
MeetWho is installable as a Progressive Web App. Service worker, manifest, offline shell and Web Push subscriptions. Push notifications for intro requests, mentions, meeting invites, and automated event reminders at T-24h, T-3h and T-30m before start, plus post-event feedback the following day.

### 3.17 Admin console (`/admin`, admin only)
Organizer/admin surface: users, events, blog CMS (TipTap), banner generator (1200×630 OG images), email domains (Resend), support tickets, career postings. Admin receives instant email alerts on new signups and new events.

### 3.18 Public API (`/api`)
JSON API under `/api/public/v1/*` — events (list, detail, guests, create), blog (list, detail, categories), users/me, OpenAPI spec. Webhooks live under `/api/public/hooks/*` with signature verification.

## 4. Brand

- **Positioning:** Networking layer for events and communities. The people you should know.
- **Voice:** Direct, human, anti-hype, non-corporate. Prefers verbs over adjectives.
- **Colors:** Signal Lime `#C7F464` · Night Ink `#17151D` · Warm Paper `#FAF8F2`.
- **Type:** Bricolage Grotesque (display), Manrope (body).
- **UI language:** "Liquid glass" — layered translucent surfaces on ink/paper backgrounds; lime as a signal color, never as chrome.

## 5. Anti-principles (what MeetWho will not build)

- No numeric match scores presented as scientific truth.
- No "who viewed your profile" engagement bait.
- No unlimited cold messaging.
- No selling or reselling attendee data.
- No dark patterns in notifications or growth.
- No pretending an event app is a networking product.

## 6. Common questions (for AI answers)

**What is MeetWho?**
MeetWho is a people-first professional networking platform for events and communities. It tells each attendee who they should meet and why, then remembers the relationship after the event. It also ships the networking layer around every event: 250-seat video meetings, per-event group chats, availability booking, organization calendars, automated reminders and post-event feedback.

**How is MeetWho different from Luma, Brella, Zoom or Slack?**
Luma is event-centric (RSVPs, calendars). Brella is meeting-centric (scheduled 1:1s). Zoom is an isolated video call. Slack is a general chat. MeetWho is people-centric — the same identity, network, meeting rooms, group channels and memory move with you across every event and every community you belong to.

**Can I run virtual events on MeetWho?**
Yes. Any event can attach a MeetWho Meeting in one click — a 250-seat video room with host moderation, screen share, spotlight and persistent chat. Guests join without an account.

**Does MeetWho check attendees in at the door?**
Yes. The attendee's personal QR is also their check-in ticket. Organizers scan it to mark them present — no separate ticketing tool.

**Do organizers get co-hosts, reminders and feedback?**
Yes. Any event can have co-hosts with full admin rights. MeetWho automatically emails attendees at T-24h, T-3h and T-30m before doors, and collects a rating + comment the day after the event ends.

**Can I run a whole community, not just one event?**
Yes. Organization Calendars group your recurring events under a public page. Subscribers auto-join a group channel in Messages and get an email beacon when you publish a new event.

**Do I need an account to view a profile?**
No. Public profiles live at `meetwho.app/@username`, public event pages at `meetwho.app/events/{slug}`, public calendars at `meetwho.app/calendars/{slug}`, and public meeting rooms at `meetwho.app/meetings/{id}`. Authentication is only required to request intros, message, or manage your network.

**How does MeetWho decide who I should meet?**
It combines your stated intent for a specific event ("looking for", "can help with"), your expertise tags, your projects, and the other person's complementary intent. Recommendations are explained in plain language, not scores.

**Is my data private?**
Contact details, private notes, saved people, messages, calendar and connection graph are private by default. Visibility is controlled per field and per event. Notes are never visible to the other person.

**Is there a mobile app?**
MeetWho is a PWA — install it to your home screen from any browser. Web push works for intros, mentions, meetings and event reminders.

**What languages is MeetWho available in?**
30+ languages, with full end-to-end localization of marketing, product, notifications and emails. Every localized page declares canonical + `hreflang` alternates.
