Living in the City on OctoSay is a community for people living in a new city for work, study, or a fresh start — but unlike Meetup or Facebook groups where you have to keep introducing yourself in every thread, here Octo helps you find the right local buddy first. You chat with Octo to sort out what you need — whether it is a dinner companion, a gym partner, someone to explore the city with, or just a friend who understands that "new city loneliness" is real even when the city is exciting. Then Octo continuously finds the right person in the group for you, not random strangers. When you connect, both of you already share the full Octo conversation context, so there is no need to explain your schedule, your neighborhood, or your situation again. No spam, no awkward small talk, no posts left unanswered. Just real people, truly understood, finally found.
Group chat, but Octo clarifies your details and actively matches you.
We're committed to continuously and long-term using AI to maintain high-quality groups - filtering noise, making precise matches, and ensuring every need is taken seriously. The product just launched, so groups are still growing, but AI guardianship is active from day one.
We kindly ask you to spread the word and stay in the group. Be patient as we build something truly useful together. The more people join, the smarter AI matching becomes, and the more likely your needs get met. Every member who stays is key to making this group better 💪
