Junto is SF’s first friendship subscription service for remote workers

Hi HN, I’m the founder of Junto.

I’ve personally struggled with maintaining close relationships in the past couple of years. With WFH becoming the norm in the tech industry, friends moving away, and the general fickleness of adulthood, I found myself deprived of fulfilling friendships that I once had.

I figured, in such a vibrant metro as SF, there must be people who I could be great friends with. Why was it still so difficult to reach them?

Meeting new people, especially as an introvert, can be a stressful experience. Not only are random meetups stressful, they’re very hit or miss in terms of compatibility.

Junto is an attempt at making the process as easy and reliable as possible. You’ll get to meet people who you’re likely to get along with, on your own terms. I chose to launch in SF, which is not only where I live, but where this problem can be felt most deeply.

If this resonates with you, consider becoming part of the first cohort of members. You can also reach out to me personally at hello@juntosf.com. Any feedback or criticism is greatly welcomed!
