Thanks for hunting us @bramk!
After a pre-launch last december we have a significant update for our app + we’re available on 5056 different Android devices ;)!
Staying close to the playing cards analogy, we introduced DECKS. These are stacks of Wildcards filtered around events. People like you can request Decks for events you fancy (ranging from intimate meetups to massive conferences). Complementing on that, any meeting place (offices, airports, coworking spaces, etc) will do as a Deck.
It’s exciting everyone can request Decks and we’re curious which events you will ‘Hunt’. When you request some Decks through Wildcard, you become a DEALER (more analogy haha) and your personal Wildcard will be the first others see when they join that Deck (sort of the same reason why people hunt products here). So you will have all the reason start one.
Together we make (that necessary evil) networking FUN and efficient again! :D
@think_andreah@milann Appreciated Andrea! :) Do you like the bold choice we made on purple? ;) we want to be the odd one out.. And what do you think of the video we made? :o
Last time I hunted Wildcard they were still in Beta (oops!), now they launched and I think it looks awesome. You can meet interesting people at events using a Tinder style UI. Also, they've added the ability to create stacks (curated for now) of cards around events or places. So if you are organizing an event you can have your unique stack where people that are at your event can join so they can meet each other. I think this is a super cool and promising app. @milann, @samuelbeek and @yojochem take it away!
Finally some proper app that (awesomely) facilitates the only feature you actually need in an event app.
Curious what the CTA on the website is going to do ("request deck"). Not clear what that is unless you scrolled to the bottom of the page. Why not make that "add your event" or put a questionmark icon next to "deck" to show the context of the word.
PS: video = great.
@donfontijn We're working on a proper request a deck form, both in the app and site, but in short: When you've create a deck you create a filter for events. As it's creator you're on top of the stack, so everyone at the event will see you first (like hunting a product here).
@robertvhoesel@donfontijn clever thinking Robert, but we first wanted to 'feel/test the water', what peeps come up with (maybe they have better ideas than we have), and lets just build an api for it afterwords ;)
