THE FLAT WAITLIST · COME FIND YOUR PEOPLE
Somewhere between all that scrolling, we're missing the whole point of being connected.
1 account. Multiple identities. You’re more than one thing.
Think Instagram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Fiverr and Taskrabbit, together.
Get in early.
We’ll send you a welcome email and let you know when FLAT opens.
See our plan for the first 1000
We’re planning a permanent Opal look for our first 1,000 eligible members. A little extra style for your profile, yours to keep. Joining the waitlist gets you a launch invite, but it doesn’t save you a spot in that first 1,000.
HOW WE GOT HERE
We kept asking,
“Do you know someone?”
For an event. For a project. For the other things we do outside our day jobs. Finding the right people kept turning into a project of its own.
FLAT started there. The name? That came from music.

A LOOK INSIDE FLAT
Who are you looking for?
Find people by what they do, whether you need a DJ for your party or someone to work on an idea with.

ABOUT FLAT
FAQ
Why not just use LinkedIn, Instagram or Fiverr?
Say you’re a photographer who also DJs. Give each one its own profile and Showcase, and switch between them from one account. Someone looking for a DJ can get straight to your DJ work.
The Digest also has up to 20 posts from you and your In Tune people, with an actual end to the scroll. And paid plans won’t bump someone above you in regular search.
Do I have to be here for work?
Nope. Meet people, join a Family around something you’re into, find a collaborator, or volunteer your skills. You don’t need a business or a service to sell. If you do want paid work, you can show what you do and answer Open Calls.
How do connections and the Digest work?
You connect with someone, they connect back, and you’re In Tune. Your Digest is made up of recent posts from you and those people: up to 20 at a time, from the past 24 hours.
New posts wait behind “New updates available” until you want to check them. You also get one Retune every 24 hours across your account. That gives you a fresh mix, with posts you haven’t seen first.
Is FLAT actually free?
Yes, actually. You can make profiles for the different things you do, show your work, connect, chat, post or answer Open Calls, and send booking inquiries. You can make or join a Family too. All free.
Lens and Ask FLAT, our in-app assistant, share five free requests a day when they’re available.
What do the paid plans cost?
Here’s what we’re planning each month, in US dollars. You can’t buy a subscription yet.
| Plan | Per month |
|---|---|
| Free | $0 |
| Plus | $1.99 |
| Pro | $4.99 |
| Business | $9.99 / seat |
Plus is for things like invoice PDFs and extra saved replies. Pro gives you saved invoice styles and room for longer Showcase videos. Business adds private project tools to your account. Paying still doesn’t put you higher in regular search.
Can someone pay to appear above me?
Buying Plus, Pro or Business won’t bump someone up the regular search results. Search works with things like skills and location, then people can look at your work and reviews. Spotlight ads are separate and marked “Sponsored.”
What’s public, and what stays private?
Think of each identity as a public profile. People can see the name, bio, photos and work you put on it. Your signup email doesn’t go on display, and booking conversations stay between the people involved.
What does FLAT Lens do?
Say there’s a damp patch on your ceiling and you don’t know who to call. Show Lens a photo or describe what’s going on. It’ll suggest the kind of help to look for and useful search words. You choose who to contact.
What’s a Family? Can we work as a team?
Your band could have one. So could the photographer, DJ and MC who keep working the same events. A Family gives you a shared Showcase and a group chat, so you can show what you do together and sort out what’s next.
It’s free to create or join, and you don’t have to be related. Families can be for collaborators, teams or a community around something you’re into.
Will FLAT be available in my country?
We haven’t announced the launch countries yet. Join the waitlist and we’ll email you when FLAT opens. Who’s nearby, and which payment options or services you can use, can depend on where you live.
Where can I download FLAT right now?
FLAT’s starting on the web, so you’ll just open flatsocial.app on your phone or computer. This page is the waitlist for now. We haven’t announced an App Store or Google Play release.
What kinds of services can I offer?
Photography, braiding, tutoring, music lessons, home repairs, event help, tech support. You can add your own specialty too. If you do a few different things, give each one its own identity and Showcase. Just make sure your services are lawful and you have any licences your work needs.
You don’t owe an app your whole day.
Leave your email and we’ll give you a shout when FLAT opens.
