CLUSTER DISCOVER-EVENTS-NEARBY · 32 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-04-16
Location-based social event apps
This cluster comprises mobile apps for discovering and joining geolocated events and venues, with social features like check-ins, friend activity, and RSVPs. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from — it predates the index or its members are undated. Traction leaders are mekla, migoai-app, and [US] Social Network, each with 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
