Inside FaceMeet
Spark Session
This is the whole product in one screen: two people who both said yes, on a timed video call. Three minutes is enough to know — and if it’s going somewhere, you extend it together, one Spark each.
Radar
Grants, accelerators, investors and AI news — summarised, sourced, and served daily. Every card shows who else is on it, so a good read becomes a good conversation.
Sparks
When both people say yes, that’s a Mutual Spark — start the video call now or schedule it. Chats stay locked until you’ve actually met, so every message here follows a real conversation.
Investors
Investors on FaceMeet are faces, not logos. See your mutual connections, see what they invest in, and send a thirty-second video pitch — it costs 3 Sparks, so every pitch they receive is intentional.
Founders
Every founder card is a living video with the ask right on it — customers, mentorship, funding, partnerships. Connecting starts a real conversation, not a cold DM.
Chats
Reactions, quoted replies, photos and voice notes — and when typing isn’t enough, jump straight back into a live Spark call from the top of the thread.
Live
Founders pitch live to a room of investors — mutual interest unlocks a private intro. Schedule a topic and your followers get invited; every conversation can live on as a replay.
Following
Post what you’re building to members who follow you. No engagement bait — a stream of real builders, with the faces to prove it.
Test Requests
Pre-launch? Ask the network to test your product and reward every accepted test with Sparks. Feedback from verified humans, paid in the currency of the network.
Recruiters
A role on FaceMeet is a sixty-second video pitch with the salary handled honestly — a range, or a visible “not set yet.” Candidates answer with their face, not a PDF.
Profile
No walls of text. A member is a short video, a city, and real numbers — sessions held, matches made. People decide with their eyes, the way people always have.
How FaceMeet works
A curated feed of founders, investors and talent — with a reason why each person is worth meeting, framed for you.
Join hosted conversations where people can show presence before a private message ever starts.
Use Sparks when a conversation, person, or opportunity deserves a more intentional next step.
Move from a live conversation to a co-founder, an investor intro, a first hire — the connections that change a company.
Onboarding paths
FaceMeet asks who you are and what you need, then guides you into the right rooms from day one.
Say what you're building and what you need. Meet co-founders, advisors, early users — and pitch investors live.
See founders speak before the deck. Host Pitch Rooms, meet filtered deal flow, and back people you've actually met.
Show what you've shipped with a video profile and experience credential, and meet the startups you want to build.
Create better paths to roles, referrals, hiring conversations, industry insight, and people who can open doors.
Make guidance more human by connecting mentors and learners through live context, not anonymous messages.
Bring trusted groups, local circles, faith communities, alumni networks, and interest-based rooms into real conversation.
Live Topics
Join hosted conversations around professional connections, founder networks, career opportunities, mentorship, communities, and events.
Talk with builders, founders, operators, and people shaping new ideas.
Find conversations around roles, referrals, industries, and paths forward.
Learn from people ahead of you or share what you know with others.
Meet thoughtful people around shared interests, local circles, and real-world communities.
Pitch Rooms
Investors host live Pitch Rooms. Founders take the stage for timed pitches. The room watches, and mutual interest becomes a direct introduction — no cold emails, no decks into the void.
An investor opens a Pitch Room around their thesis — pre-seed fintech, B2B SaaS, whatever they back.
Founders apply with Sparks and pitch live in timed rounds — everyone in the room sees presence, not paperwork.
When interest is mutual, FaceMeet opens the conversation directly. The pitch was the meeting.
Host earnings
When people spend Sparks to join your rooms or unlock your replays, you earn a share — automatically. Host the conversations your corner of the ecosystem needs, build a following, and cash out as your rooms grow.
Your AI coach
FaceMeet coaches your video intro before you record, frames it differently for an investor, a co-founder, or talent — and sends weekly receipts like "Seen by 3 investors · 7 founders." Real counts, never inflated.
FaceMeet Radar
Radar hunts the ecosystem daily: grants you can actually apply for — including government programmes and ones for women-led teams — accelerators with money behind them, competitions worth entering, investors in motion, and the AI news your next conversation will be about. Every card is summarised, deadlined, shareable, and shows who else is on it. These six are live from today's feed:
