Berlin early access and why pace matters

2 May 2026

Starting in Berlin

Cohort is rolling out city by city so cohort density stays real. Berlin is first: enough people to fill weekly groups without diluting intent, and a dating culture that already experiments with how relationships start.

Small groups, on purpose

Early access only works if weekly cohorts stay small enough that sparks and threads feel human. Growing faster than placement quality would break the thing we are trying to prove - that slowing down can increase signal.

What we watch

We care whether members complete threads, whether reciprocity feels fair, and whether people say they understood each other better than in swipe-first apps - not raw download counts. If you are in Berlin and want in, request an invite when you are ready to respect the pace of others in your cohort.
