🏆 TechCrunch Disrupt Ticket Giveaway Campaign in Collaboration with OpenSphere.ai
- We’re thrilled to be part of TechCrunch Disrupt’s Startup Battlefield 200 this year, and to celebrate, we're collaborating with OpenSphere.ai to give away two free tickets (worth $1,175 each) to this year's TechCrunch Disrupt happening on Oct 28-30!
- Here’s how you can join in: The Top 2 referrers on CoffeeSpace over these next 7 days will win the tickets. Simply; 1) Download the CoffeeSpace app, 2) Go to Profile -> Refer, 3) Share your personal invite code (e.g. A27X5HHR) with your friends; and you’ll be in the running! Link for more details.
- And as usual, each successful referral also grants both you and your friend a week of complimentary Business Class membership worth $24.99!
🚀 250,000 Swipes, 6,500 Users + More Success Stories
- We've passed the 250k swipes milestone and the 6,500-user mark, both in the past week!
- Continuing our 'Success Stories' series, our second feature highlights Luke and Greg, who matched on CoffeeSpace and have since partnered to build Orbital Electric Systems, now raising their Series A!
- Our latest edition of the "Founders' Journey" series explores the OpenAI founding team's path through AI innovation, ethics, and rapid growth. Get to know the brains and stories behind ChatGPT.
📱 Product Updates
- We just launched our 'scheduled invites' feature so that people who've just joined can immediately swipe right while waiting for the daily batch of approvals!
- LinkedIn data for education is now fully integrated into CoffeeSpace! (+ experiences from before)
- With this data live, we will soon start exploring: 1) Social graph mapping based on swipe data for algo optimization, and 2) Using OpenAI's embeddings to match based on profile complementarity on top of cofounder preferences.
- Other fixes/ small updates: Vertical scroll on profiles resets to top after swiping, hide/unhide chats fixed, notifications now should all direct to the respective pages
