Write your message in an Octo Group — Octo clarifies the details first, then posts and keeps matching you with the right people.
For people who just moved to LA and want real friendships in a city built around freeways. Find beach buddies in Santa Monica, hiking friends in Griffith Park, and people who understand that driving 45 minutes to hang out is normal here
New in Los Angeles on OctoSay is a community for people who just moved to LA — but unlike Hollywood networking events where everyone is performing, here Octo helps you find genuine connections first. You chat with Octo to sort out what you need — whether it is a beach buddy in Santa Monica, a hiking friend at Runyon Canyon, someone to explore food scenes with, or just a friend who understands that driving 45 minutes to hang out is the LA tax on friendship. Then Octo continuously finds the right person for you, not random strangers. When you connect, both of you already share the full conversation context, so there is no need to explain your neighborhood or your industry. No spam, no industry schmoozing, no posts left unanswered. Just real people in LA, 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 💪
