HOW IT WORKS

Explore the app

Before. During. After.
Your night shouldn’t end
at the door.

Let’s face it: in the age of AI and technology, we long for human connection and IRL more than ever. Let’s get it right for once.

A Sami pick from a real TestFlight session: a New Orleans jazz band at Birdland Theater, with Sami’s reason for choosing it.
01 / BEFORE

Know where to go.

Tell Sami what you’re into and who you’d like to meet. Sami reads the week’s events and hands you a short list, not another 40-tab scroll through five different apps.

BeYu Explore with Hosting, Attending, and Friends attending filters above a grid of events.
02 / DURING

Walk in already knowing someone.

Filter Explore by the events your friends are attending and follow the hosts you trust, so you don’t walk into a room cold.

BeYu Circle with posting, a Lately activity feed, communities, and inviting friends.
03 / AFTER

Keep the people you met.

Every event gets a living page: photos, the group chat, the “when are we doing this again” thread. It doesn’t disappear the second the lights come up. Your circle and the communities you follow keep the thread going: what your people are up to lately, and every next night from the hosts you like.

SAMI IN ACTION

Ask Sami for the kind of night you have in mind.

Tell Sami what would make a good night. In this TestFlight recording, Kyle asks for jazz in New York and somewhere to talk with business associates. Sami returns four event suggestions.

  • Start with your voice, or choose the keyboard.
  • Browse event cards with dates, venues, and “Why you’d dig it.”
  • Swipe through the suggestions to find your kind of night.

Your mood is a good place to begin.

MORE THAN AN EVENTS APP

Build a close-friends circle for the events you don’t want blasted to your whole network. Swipe through recommended events built around what you’re actually into, not a generic “trending near you” feed.

  • Close friends, kept close.Share plans with your inner circle only, or open it up to everyone.
  • Swipe, don’t scroll.Top events for you this week, and why we think you’ll be into them.

PROOF

Built with New York’s communities,
not in a vacuum.

We’re building with Jersey City Tech Meetup and Intu Global’s 150k+ member network. Sami, Communities, and living event pages ship every week, tested with the organizers who’ll actually use them. More organizer partners coming soon.

FOR ORGANIZERS

Host once.
Keep the
community.

Your list is scattered across Luma, Mailchimp, a WhatsApp group and a Drive folder nobody opens again. BeYu gives your nights a home that doesn’t disappear when the night does.

  • Create events and manage your communities from one integrated, seamless platform.
  • A permanent page for each event to keep the connection and community going.
  • Increase value to both attendees and sponsors.
A HOME FOR
your nights.

Don’t get lost in
a sea of events.

Just BeYu and get connected IRL. Join the waitlist and be first in the room when BeYu opens.

GOOD NIGHTS / REAL CONNECTION / A LITTLE MORE YOU

BEFORE THE FIRST HELLO

Glad you asked.

Is BeYu free?

Joining the waitlist is free. Pricing for the app hasn’t been announced yet.

Is it only for tech people?

We’re starting with New York’s tech and startup scene because that’s where we know the room best. The app already covers Business, Food, Music, Sports and Fun too, and more communities are coming.

Where is BeYu available?

NYC Metro, starting with New York City.

Who is Sami?

Sami is BeYu’s guide to the city. Tell Sami what you’re in the mood for and it suggests events, with a reason for each. Try a real session.

I already use Luma or Eventbrite. Do I need this too?

Keep using them. BeYu works alongside your current ticketing app.

Can I get the app yet?

BeYu is in a private TestFlight beta on iPhone. This website collects early-access interest; it doesn’t grant beta access or promise a launch date. Tell us which phone you use when you join so early-access planning can account for it.

What happens after I sign up?

Your details and preferences go to this website’s operator for early-access planning and updates. There’s no payment or guaranteed invitation. You can request removal through the privacy page.

BE FIRST IN THE ROOM

Save your
seat.

Tell us a little about yourself to join the early-access list. Answer each question; only “Something else?” is optional.
