Intro

I’m Nameel, a former finance bro turned founder who always ended up planning my friend group’s weekends. After realizing that everyone struggles with the same problem: that there were too many options on IG and TikTok, too much time spent researching on Google, and way too much effort coordinating with friends on WhatsApp.

We built SwipeOnDeck, an AI-native local experiences marketplace where friends prompt, swipe, and book together in minutes. Think Tinder for experiences, making going out fast, fun, and social.

In our first few months live in London, we’ve onboarded 12 experience partners, hit 500 users, and crossed 10,000 swipes (all organic).


About

SwipeOnDeck helps Gen Z users discover things to do around them, match with their friends’ interests, and book instantly, powered by a social, AI-driven interface.

For users:

  • Swipe and match on leisure experiences that fit your group’s vibe
  • Use prompts like "3 of us want to try Asian food with a skyline view under £30" to get real-time AI-curated recommendations as a deck of cards
  • Swipe together with friends using our multiplayer feature and book instantly


For partners (venues & experience providers):

  • Get featured to high-intent local audiences
  • Offer exclusive student or group deals
  • Drive bookings via in-app checkouts and our Deck Pro supplier dashboard (coming soon!)


We’re building personalized discovery at scale - turning trapped ready-to-convert demand into bookings.

Asks

Thank you in advance for the support, everyone! We’d love your feedback on our launch, connections with marketplace builders or early-stage investors, and intros to leisure/experience providers exploring new acquisition channels.

Would also love to connect with anyone working on hospitality, social commerce or event discovery platforms to swap learnings.
