Stoop

Vancouver · Toronto · Calgary

Small circles that keep meeting. Yours starts when you do.

Stoop puts you in a small activity circle in your city, built around an activity and times you can actually make. The group meets for six sessions, then decides what comes next.

Built city by city — Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary.

Yours would be one of them

Nobody here can climb. That's the point. Shoe rental is $7 and I bring a spare 41. — Priya

An example, including the note — this is what a circle looks like, not a circle you can join yet. Yours is formed from your answers, and we never publish members or hosts here.

01 — How it works

Four things get decided, then you just turn up.

  1. What fits your week

    Five questions: what you'd show up for, when you're free, and where you can walk to.

  2. Your circle

    Four to ten neighbours who chose the same activity in the same part of town.

  3. The recurring plan

    One evening that works for everyone, every fortnight. Six sessions, then the group decides.

  4. First meetup

    Dated, in a public venue, with a host who is there before you are.

You only make the first decision. The other three are made for you.

The second rail — introductions

Circles launch first and work on their own. Later, and only in cities with enough people for it, Stoop adds one to three curated introductions a week — a real card, no deck, decline and it is gone. Nothing about your circle depends on it.

02

What we refuse to build

  • No deck. Introductions arrive 1–3 a week as real decisions — decline and it's gone.
  • No paying to be seen. Visibility isn't for sale here. Permanently.
  • No streaks. Milestones only count up — your 5th, 10th, 25th stoop.
  • No kept photos. Verification images are deleted after review. We keep the checkmark, not your face.
  • No person-maps. The city map shows neighborhoods and counts, never people.

These aren't features. They're the product.

03 — What's forming

This is the shape of it.

Every circle is printed the same way — a day, a time, a neighbourhood, a headcount that never hides.

TUE · 7:00PM

Mount Pleasant · Vancouver

Climbing circle · 8 seats · every other week

An example of the format, not a circle you can join. Yours is filled in from your own answers: your activity, your city, the times you are free.

Four to ten people, and never more. That is the whole circle.

Circles are formed from this list — six sessions, with room for a few more. Answer five questions and you are in the one your city builds.

Question 1 of 5

Sixty seconds. It's where your circle starts.

Which sounds most like where you're at right now?

This shapes who you meet — we never mix life stages without your say-so.
