VEN Usability Image

There are mates around every corner.
But 1 in 5 London men don’t have any.

VEN exists to connect men in London who should be friends already: close by, who like similar stuff or are going through similar life stages. Whether you've just moved to the city, are a local who wants to expand your social circle or you just need someone to talk to - VEN simply connects you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wait, so VEN isn’t a dating app, right?

expand_more

Men need their own space to make platonic friends. We’re here to help you feel comfortable in making friends, and confident enough to find mates close by that you really get along with.

Why is the app for men only?

expand_more

There are loads of friendship apps out there. Most of them are dating apps that pivoted to friendship apps (hello, Bumble!) and there are an increasing number of apps specifically catering for women. That’s why we created VEN - a new space for men, with new rules, that foster the kinds of friendships that men need in the world right now.

Hold on a minute. Is this a sex thing?

expand_more

No, this is not a sex thing. This is a FRIENDSHIP THING!

How will you find me friends if you don’t know what I’m like?

expand_more

We meticulously harvest all your data using your face ID when you sign in. (No, obviously we don’t do that). But we do have a quiz when you start up the app that helps us curate you a list of people you’re likely to connect with, whatever stage of life you’re in!

Does this cost actual money?

expand_more

Nope, not a penny. The app is free to use, and no, there are no “in app purchases” either.
