Write your message in an Octo Group — Octo clarifies the details first, then posts and keeps matching you with the right people.
For newcomers in Paris looking to build a life in the City of Light. Find museum buddies, café companions, and people who understand that Parisians take time to warm up but the friendships are worth the wait
New in Paris on OctoSay is a community for people who just moved to the City of Light — but unlike Paris expat groups where everyone speaks English and never integrates, here Octo helps you find connections that actually go somewhere. You chat with Octo to sort out what you need — whether it is a museum companion for the Musée d Orsay, a café partner in Saint-Germain, someone to explore flea markets with, or just a friend who understands that Parisians take time to warm up but the friendships are deep and worth the wait. 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 arrondissement or your French level. No spam, no apartment rental scams, no posts left unanswered. Just real people in Paris, 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 💪
