How it works

Look for the signal

Each day, one signal is assigned to women and one is assigned to men. Sometimes the signals are the same; sometimes they’re different. Members wear their assigned signal.

Spot them in real life

At the coffee shop, gym, bookstore — wherever your day takes you.

Make a move

A smile, a conversation, a shared moment. The rest is up to you.

A more intentional crowd

Members keep it real. No profiles. No photos. Just people.

REGULAR NOTICED

100% anonymous.

No public profile, no photos, and no identity shown to other members. You simply check the private daily signal and go live your day.

COMING SOON · NOTICED XO

The exact opposite.

For people who choose to be seen. XO adds visible profiles, named public activity, and intentional community features.

About NOTICED

Built to make real-world connection easier to recognize.

STARTED SEPTEMBER 2026

Less swiping. More real life.

NOTICED started with a simple idea: people should be able to recognize when someone else is open to being noticed without turning every interaction into another profile, feed, or chat thread.

Gainesville is where we started. The plan is to keep expanding city by city, with the community helping decide where NOTICED goes next.

FOUNDER

Built by someone who knows systems.

NOTICED was founded by James, a longtime technology professional with nearly two decades of experience across cloud architecture, site reliability engineering, software engineering, automation, and building technical systems.

From conception to production, NOTICED was created by James alone — zero employees — in less than 24 hours.

He resides in Florida with his dogs, Giselle, Mara, and Murphy.

The product reflects that background: simple on the surface, deliberate underneath, and designed to scale without turning the human part into another complicated app experience.

NEAR TERM

Prove the model, then expand.

Our near-term focus is to grow the Gainesville launch, improve the member experience, refine the daily signal system, build local awareness, and expand into the next cities chosen by the community.

ONE-YEAR PLAN

Build a repeatable city-launch engine.

Over the first year, the goal is to establish a repeatable way to launch new markets, build local partnerships, grow membership, and create a recognizable offline social signal that works across different cities and age groups.

FIVE-YEAR VISION

Make NOTICED recognizable anywhere.

The long-term vision is national scale: a system where people can travel, move, go out, attend events, or simply live their normal lives and still recognize others who are participating in the same shared experience.

AT HOME

Meet Giselle, Mara, and Murphy.

Outside of building systems and growing NOTICED, James spends his time in Florida with his dogs.

WORK WITH US

We’re looking for the right people and partners.

We’re interested in advertising and marketing partnerships, local launch partners, venues, university organizations, events, brand collaborations, press, and other opportunities that can help NOTICED grow responsibly.

As the system expands, we also expect to build a larger operating team across community management, partnerships, marketing, growth, support, and day-to-day platform operations.

NOTICED XO

For people who actually want to be noticed.

APP UPDATEThe NOTICED XO mobile app is coming soon.XO will also remain available through the website.
BOLD. SPONTANEOUS. OPT-IN.

Take off the mask. Choose to be seen.

Regular NOTICED keeps members anonymous to one another. NOTICED XO flips the experience: it is for people who actively want to be noticed and intentionally choose to share their approximate presence.

Turn your presence on when you feel spontaneous, turn it off whenever you want, and access expanded features built around being seen.

The planned experience includes blurred activity ranges, proximity-based text channels, and voice channels.

XO gets the app. Regular NOTICED stays web-only.Regular NOTICED members visit the website for the daily signal. This interactive showcase represents the planned NOTICED XO mobile app: a dashboard with today’s signal and direct access to activity, people, chats, events, and topics. XO will also remain available through the website.

  • Visible, locked private channelsPeople outside a private channel can see its name, locked status, and member count—but not its members’ names or conversations.

  • Searchable, non-anonymous profilesFind participating members by full name or exact email and open their visible profile.
  • Direct and group messagingAccept message requests, start one-to-one or group conversations, invite participants, and let authorized group managers remove participants.
  • Member controlsBlock or unblock another member at any time. Blocked members cannot send new direct-message requests.
  • Accountable profile postsPost publicly with your verified name attached. Authors cannot edit or self-delete published posts; authorized moderators may remove content when required for safety, privacy, policy, or law.
  • Positive-only reputationWhen another member likes something you publish, your score increases by one point. A like can be undone during a one-hour grace period; after that it becomes permanent. There is no dislike or downvote button.
  • Free, optional PerksOpt into individual perks that can unlock membership discounts, badges, or other benefits. Members can collect and display multiple badges as more perks arrive.
  • First Perk: BoldSave $1 on every monthly membership payment while this perk is active and display the same unique Bold badge everywhere your name appears.
  • Bold activity historyYour profile shows everything you publish in public spaces and every item you like. Direct-message and group-DM content stays private, and voice conversations are not recorded.
  • Top-10 recognitionEarn temporary, differently colored badges showing your rank when you place in a daily, weekly, or monthly Top 10 category. Badge designs are still being developed.
  • Badges everywhereYour active Perks and ranking badges follow your name across profiles, chats, direct messages, group messages, and close-range heat-map encounters. The wider map shows only anonymous badge totals—not identities.
  • Heat map includedEvery XO subscription includes the heat map by default. Turn sharing of your own approximate presence on or off at any time. The initial experience is planned to show anonymous activity within up to 15 miles; expanded range may arrive in a future Feature Drop.
  • Names unlock only nearbyZooming never reveals who is inside an activity area. Names and profile badges become visible only after the app verifies a close-range, Bluetooth-like encounter. Actual range varies by device and surroundings.
  • Major events on the mapEvents with enough confirmed signups can display their name, start date and time, and participant count. Attendee identities stay hidden, and the qualifying signup threshold is still to be determined.
  • Account activity recordsProfile views, event signups, likes, posts, badge changes, blocks, and other platform actions create secured activity records. Private-message content, group-DM content, and voice audio are excluded from public history.
  • More ways to connectAdditional user-to-user interactions are planned for future Feature Drops. Exact capabilities will be announced before release.
  • Dedicated Sponsors sectionAny future sponsored content stays inside one clearly labeled section. Members will not face pop-ups, forced interstitials, or advertisements scattered through chats, profiles, the heat map, or the dashboard. Sponsor access and tools are still to be determined.
  • Topics and threadsCreate forum-style discussions and discover conversations by city, recency, or verified engagement.
  • Fair profile viewsProfiles display view totals and daily, weekly, and monthly trends. Each verified viewer can add only one view to a profile per UTC day, even after repeat visits.

The rule

Sponsored content will live here—not in chats, profiles, the heat map, or the member dashboard. There will be no pop-up ads, forced interstitials, or repeated boxes members must close.

Company access

Companies that work with NOTICED may receive access to defined sponsor capabilities inside this section. The exact tools, eligibility requirements, and review process are still to be determined.
