get out and mingle.
You see them in the crowd. They see you. Eyes meet but the moment passes.
Not anymore.
MNGL
("mingle")
is the verified social network app for events.
Mingle and match with people before, during, and after the event you're both attending.
RSVP to an event and join its matching pool with everyone going.
ID-verify and mingle daily across your city.
Meet IRL.
For dating, friendship, or both. Launching in Los Angeles.
MNGL's Mission
Going out should connect you to people, not just places.
Dating apps are collapsing. Live events are surging.
People want to meet in real life, and MNGL has the answer.
MNGL is the social network for going out. Verified people, ID-Verified to match - no bots, no fake profiles.
We're starting in Los Angeles, the densest live-event market in the country. Sprawled across 80+ neighborhoods, separated by freeways and traffic. There's no shared bar everyone walks past. A city this fragmented deserves a way to find its people.
For everyone who's ever left a concert wishing they'd met someone in the crowd.
Welcome.
The MNGL Network
1. Profile
Show who you are and where you've been. Display name, age, photos, bio and interests. Build out your taste graph — favorite venues, artists, sports teams, festivals. Add your event history (every show, every weekend). Tag your closest friends and create Duos with the person you always go out with.
Create a friend profile, a dating profile, or both — toggle between them anytime. They're independent, so a friend match stays a friend match and a dating match stays a dating match.
Engaging — liking, matching, messaging — requires verification.
2. Discover
Open MNGL in the morning and see what's happening tonight, this weekend, or the entire next year. Concerts at the Hollywood Bowl, the Echo, or the Wiltern. Lakers at Crypto, Dodgers at the Stadium. Festivals like Coachella, Just Like Heaven, Stagecoach. Comedy at the Greek, Largo, or Dynasty Typewriter. Theater, conventions, premieres. Sorted by your taste.
RSVP to any event to join its matching pool. Phase 2: member-created events — open meetups, parties, hangouts in your scene.
3. Mingle or Match
Browse free. Verify to mingle.
Sign up free with email and explore MNGL — see what's happening, build your profile, watch Vibes, see profiles you visit directly, and message people you're already connected with. To match and message strangers, ID-verify once for $4.99. That's how MNGL confirms every person is real, 18 or older. No bots.
Once verified, mingle two ways:
General pool — match daily with verified people across LA. 10 friend + 10 dating profiles a day, split however you choose (5/5, 10 friend only, or 10 dating only). See your full daily set before X-ing or hearting anyone — no snap decisions.
Event pool — RSVP "going" to an event to join its matching pool. 10 friend + 10 dating profiles a day across all your events, same flexible split. Filter to a specific event, or to "ticket holders only." The person you saw across the room can still find you a week later.
Want more? Subscribe for less than a cup of coffee — $4.99/month — to double your daily matches and unlock advanced filters.
Optional power-ups, any tier: upload your actual ticket for a verified ticketholder badge + top placement at that event. See who liked you. Additional matches at one event. Boost-style "be seen first" priority.
4. Vibes
Post a Vibe — a photo or short video to give a sense of what the vibe is at the event.
Get discovered by other users — potential matches can find your profile through your Vibe post.
Vibes link to the event page, so people can still discover you after the event.
Every Vibe is ID-verified to post, GPS-verified at the event, and moderated before it publishes.
5. Event Chat
Every event page has a live chat for attendees. Ask about set times, share what's happening, find each other in the room — the social warmth that's hard to build through matching alone.
ID-verified to post, pre-filtered for explicit content, time-gated to the live event window (opens ~24 hours before, closes ~24 hours after).
The public square for the event. Matching still flows through the matching pool the normal way.
Verified users only. Real people at real events.

THE MNGL TIMELINE
Founder
I'm Phoenix Mellow. Costume and fashion designer by day. Single. Ready to mingle.
I live in Los Angeles, the city of cars. I've noticed that between the freeway and the front door, there's not much built for connection.
I've spent over a decade in LA going to events — concerts, festivals, sports, conventions, and theater — and the same thing happens. You see someone across the room. The lights go down. The moment passes. The event ends.
I'm building MNGL so that moment doesn't have to pass.
Become A Founding Member
A locked-in onetime-only ticket to mingle for life.
Founding Members are the first 10,000 people who back MNGL. Supporters who believe in the social network for going out before it launches — and help build it by being here this early.
For $99 once, you get lifetime access (no monthly subscription, ever), early access to the private beta, and Founding Member status on your profile when MNGL launches.
You're not just buying access. You're funding the foundation, validating the category, and unlocking institutional capital for the team to ship at scale.
The lifetime tier is one-time only and disappears once 10,000 spots fill.
