Another one- Some kind of social network around investing. You can see which stocks your friend bought, how much profit did they make, essentially you can see their portfolio.

afaik remember sebi doesn't allow social graph on trading

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I always had hard time meeting new people. I don't like the idea of dating apps to meet people, we should have an app/platform for offline events, you can see the profile of people who are attending, price should not be exorbitantly high.

Luma is trying to create something but most of the events are private.

What is one project/problem that you always wanted to solve but never got chance to work on it?- Grapevine

I am a fresher 2023 graduate and have been doing this (applying for jobs) for almost a year, everyone said you have to do internships as it is necessary so did 2 internships one for a year and another for 6 months but apparently no one counts internships as experience even jobs that had 1-3 yoe as requirement and now everyone's hiring 2024 grads as freshers (I tried to look for another internship but there were none during the time of placements).

I am now tired of this field, many full stack devs don't know shit outside Javascript world and many of them can't even use tools like git properly and are so cocky of themselves. 

Saw an SDE on twitter who apparently has 6 years of experience, doesn't even know how to configure multiple SSH and says managing multiple ssh is a downside. A women dev (cause in India you have engineers and female engineers apparently) doesn't know about sidebar cache and calls it a bug and she's in google. and If I try to roast these people with my real name there's a whole cabal of Banglorians who will grab their macbooks inside third wave coffee and start tweeting against me after aggressively drinking their Chocolate mocha frappe.

Just go into any random tech twitter space no one seems to be talking about tech it's always about DSA, interviews, LIFE IN BANGLORE, which cafe they visited.

I let myself believe tech was my passion and worked hard  for but Indian techies and companies are worst, this generation thinks they are better than their predecessor but follow the same politics everywhere even when it comes to Tech communities (who tf does politics in a community that produces open source code wtf).

They talk about networking and creating a community all the time but can't even respond to linkedin cold dm and blame the sender by nitpicking about the format 👏👏 and then they'll go on post the screenshot and rant how it's the sender fault to even try to network with them with a message that isn't written from their own blood.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Got an idea to build a social networking app for people to tackle loneliness and find friends easily. We can take this forward in the comments section:)

Hi Grapevine,

I'm [Varun](https://www.linkedin.com/in/varunsud/), Founder at [Juleo](https://www.juleo.club/): The Trusted Singles Club. We are not a dating app, nor a matrimony app, but a Club of Govt ID verified Members who don't just match but meet fast!

I'm here to chat with you about my journey in all things startup, consumer tech, marketing, product and Juleo!

Ask me anything, I'll be back at 9 PM and begin answering! :)

I'm Varun Sud, Founder & CEO at Juleo. Ask me anything!

Co-founder

We're the team behind https://thesocial.company. this is a passion project for us and not a company in the conventional sense where we want people to come out in the real world and co-create experiences with real people. We're just starting out, so do let us know what you think. Cheers!!

So someone posted about us here recently so let us introduce ourselves

Founder

Hi,

I have been thinking about a product which would allow an individual to ‘buy’ someones time for variety of use-cases like;

1. Listen to my rant.
2. Go to shopping with me.
3. Play a sport with me.
4. Brainstorm something.
5. Go cycling / walk with me.

… many more. Essentially, everything under roof where we feel the need of a human but fail to have access to their time. 

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

Instant Localised Dating/Friendship App: imagine you are in a gym and you want to talk to someone but not able to because of certain reasons. A localised friendship/dating app would help in those cases.

[Idea-8] Who would like to build this ?

Senior software engineer

It's a social crisis moment we're having.

Why it's happening:

- Rapid inflation
- Social apps are more addictive than ever
- Spatial computing
- Rise of immersive and social gaming
- People are playing the "creator" game
- Going out is expensive 
- Devices are more "controllable" than the outside world
- Peer pressure to be on devices (social, work)

We're all kinda drunk on technology. Anxiety and sadness at all time levels.

Someone will make us $1B helping us be less addicted to our phones and technology over the next 5 years.

Someone will make $1B helping us be more addicted to our phone and technology over the next 5 years.

They won't be the same person.

The two ways to make money in this world are:

1) Get people more addicted to screens
2) Get people off screens

You're either building the next big board games company or the next big dating app for VR

You're either building the next big peer-to-peer events company or the next big internet community

You're either building the next big Soho House or the next big SaaS app

You get the idea. 

People are craving connection.

It's just coming out in weird ways.

I'm having an Idea for an open source marriage app. (Not a business)

Its made for youth, of youth, by youth for GenZ, Millenials who are not interested in the traditional constructs of society and is looking outside. 

How many viners here can come together for this project. Think of it like "The Product Folks " community but for marriage. 


1. KYC Should be done only by the boys/girls. No parents/nosy relatives interference whatsoever
2. Their likes and dislikes is hidden for others on the platform until the other gender initiates a conversation with them and accepts criterias mutually. 
3. It will have a bunch of mutually compatibility check sessions with feedback form for each other. 
4. No AI allowed on images on the platform.
5. Fees collected from the customers would be solely for the maintenance and upgrade of the app. 
6. Equal or equivalent criteria for matching guys n girls. 

7. Proposing app name as Utopic !!! 

Would love to know the opinions of other viners . @biryanienthu I read somewhere you worked on an idea on this space and would like to know your stance/opinions/other valuable inputs on this.

Idea for a marriage app

Saw this on Twitter today, found this interesting and loved the idea. 

The app is named - Jamm. A members-only social network that helps you meet all kinds of people over fun activities IRL. Tagline - ‘Never Have Another Boring Week’.

The idea behind this as per founder (Able Joseph) is to improve the social health/life of its members. The more like-minded the community, the nicer its interactions will be. 


Here’s how it works.
- Apply for membership
- Once accepted, pick an activity (board games, bike rides, etc.) and post a Jamm
- Receive requests from other members who are interested to be a part of your Jamm
- Curate the people you wish to bring together
- Coordinate with the Jammers on group chat
- Meet them IRL and have a good time

Interesting to see how they’ll be solving security challenges associated with meeting people. Also, I guess this could also turn out to be a hookup app.

What you guys think? 

Bengaluru peeps here - Have you used this yet?

Came across this interesting startup - Jamm. A members-only social network

I am building dating app only for IT people. Give me suggestions/features. Thanks

Assistant Manager

What are few of the app ideas that you never got to build and what’s the reason? I’ll go first:
Idea: Location based alarm service where you can have pre-configured alarms to go off based on some location you set. For ex: set alarm to wake you when reach a particular destination in a journey.
Reason: do not know mobile app dev yet and more importantly, similar app already exists.

App ideas that you never built and why?

Do people want this / imagine an app wherein you could ask for the club scene (crowd quality), or crowding at a beach or a restaurant few mins before you decide to go, and someone on the ground uploads it for you - we reward the supplier and the requester pays. Extended to beaches, airbnbs, hotels etc

Startup idea :(looking for a cto) a- Crowdsourced Vibe Check app (you ask and someone uploads a live short video)

Program Manager

Can anyone tell, how to find any girl for friendship. Dating apps suck

Question????

It's the same story with so many platforms. They start off well, then start making it difficult for users over time to get matches. Eventually it becomes pay-to-match completely, especially for men.

Is it really that difficult to run an honest matchmaking platform that actually does its job for a decent price or just ads? Has anyone tried starting their own or worked on platforms like these?

What is one project/problem that you always wanted to solve but never got chance to work on it?
