Every love story starts with a place.

Pick a real Chicago venue. See who else wants to go. Match with a plan, not a pen pal. Place and Time is the dating app that skips to the good part.

Chicago first. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you the moment there's a date to share.

Dating, flipped.

Traditional dating apps: swipe, match, message, plan, maybe meet. Place and Time: pick a venue, see who's interested, show up.

01

Pick a place

Browse real Chicago venues — bars, restaurants, coffee shops. Find somewhere you actually want to go.

02

See who's interested

Check out who else wants to go there. No endless swiping — just real people at a real place.

03

Show up

Match and get a date proposal — day, time, place, inside the venue’s real opening hours. Confirm it, and a short chat opens for the details. Then turn up.

Three ways to show up.

Whether you're looking for a date, a double date, or just someone to go with.

One-on-one

Singles Dating

Pick a bar or coffee shop. See who else is interested. Match, and get an automatic date proposal. No chat purgatory.

  • Venue-first matching
  • Automatic date proposals
  • Chat opens when you both confirm — and it's capped
  • Filters on gender and age. Nothing else.
Bring your friend

Double Dating

Create a duo with your best friend. Match with another duo. All four of you go out. Dating with a built-in wingperson.

  • Duo profiles with your bestie
  • Match duo-to-duo
  • Safety in numbers
  • No gender, orientation or age filter — four people, one table
Not dating

Activity Buddy

Somewhere you want to go, and somebody to go with. Same spot, same free evening, no romantic reading of it.

  • No gender or orientation filter at all
  • Matched on the spots you pick and when you're free
  • Real venues, real meetups
  • Good if you just moved to Chicago

Dating apps didn't ruin dating.
The endless swiping did.

Somewhere along the way, "meeting someone" became a thumb workout. Swipe right 100 times. Match with 10. Message 5. Get ghosted by 4. Maybe, eventually, awkwardly meet the one who stuck around.

Place and Time skips all of that. Pick a place you actually want to go. See who else wants to go there. Match with a plan, not a pen pal. Show up, order a drink, and meet someone in real life.

We're the app that gets you off the app.

Made for Chicago. Starting in Chicago.

We're not launching everywhere at once. We're launching in the neighborhoods we know and love, with venues that make Chicago the best city for a first date.
