The right people are in the room.
Stuart makes sure they meet.

Stuart is an app for events and conferences that introduces guests who will truly click, in real life, and helps them grow a network of genuine, rewarding connections. Drop him into your event and the room comes alive.

closed beta · 2026 See how it works
what you want from your event

You want people to turn up, meet someone who matters and have a positive, memorable experience that leaves them wanting to come back. Not a day of awkward conversations and transactional contact swapping that goes nowhere.

Stuart · in real time, in real life
the problem you know too well

Everyone is networking. Almost nobody is connecting.

You get the right people in one place at real cost. But the magic is left to chance. Right now, event apps prioritise matches based on function. Yet great meetings come from great human connection. And the people who would really click pass each other by.

What goes wrong in the room

  • Most people do not know who they would actually spark with, so they stick with who they came with.
  • "Now go and mingle" is the moment introverts dread, and quietly half the room loses out.
  • Conference apps push transactional, scheduled meetings. LinkedIn is a directory for looking up targets.
  • Great matches sit ten feet apart all day and never meet.

What it costs you

  • Event anxiety keeps people away, and the prospect of transactional meetings are even more of a turn off.
  • Success is measured in contacts collected, not relationships made.
  • No proof the room produced anything. No story to tell sponsors or leadership.
  • Attendees who didn't feel great at the end of the day will think twice before coming again.
the solution

Stuart introduces the people who will genuinely click.

Stuart matches people based on who they are, not just what they do. We remove the awkwardness, hand each person a warm reason to say hello, and help them keep the relationship going after the event. Matching is 1.7x better than chance and improves over time. The result is an event worth coming back for: one that feels more human, more generous, and leaves people energised rather than drained.

how it works

Five simple steps. No screens between people.

1

Opt in

Guests create a quick profile and choose your event. The more they share, the better the match.

2

Get introduced

Stuart finds someone in the room they will genuinely click with, and explains why.

3

Confirm

Both say yes. Then Stuart shares a warm opener and a little prep for each side.

4

Meet

In real time. In real life. A real conversation, with someone you both wanted to meet.

5

Nurture

Record it, follow up, and connect onward, so a one-off spark becomes a lasting network.

Why you two

You're both early-stage founders feeling your way through the first hire, and Maya has been exactly where you are now. She'll get it. And off the clock? She's happiest out tracking wildlife, just like you.

"I hear you've survived a first hire. I'm mid-panic about mine, any war stories?"

From her side

Maya's pitching investors this week, so she's heads-down. A genuine question lands better than a sell.

A small gift for Maya

You mapped local nature reserves last summer. She's looking for field sites near campus. That's gold for her.

Try Stuart at your event.

Just add to the mix and spark deeper connections between the people who will click. No extra work, but another string to the bow.

For your guests

  • A much higher chance of meeting a great person, not just the right title.
  • A way past the awkwardness, with a warm reason to walk up and say hello.
  • Connections they actually keep, nurtured after the event, not lost on the way home.

For you, the host

  • Better experiences mean better word of mouth, and more people back next time.
  • Eases event anxiety and gives shy guests a reason to show up and stay.
  • Extraordinary collaborations that would never otherwise happen, creating great stories.
  • A real story to tell sponsors and leadership about what the room produced.
inspired by a true Stuart

Our Stuart died in 2015, aged 94. Until just six months before, he was still travelling the world, connecting with a vast network of friends and colleagues and thoughtfully introducing people to one another.

His generosity of spirit changed the lives of some and inspired many others to follow his example.

Stuart the app is an attempt to bottle that instinct and share it with the world.

We all need to be more Stuart.

Make your next event the one people remember.

We are running Stuart at a handful of invited events while in closed beta. If you organise events or conferences and want a room that genuinely connects, we would love to try Stuart with you.
