JoyWorks is your personal social agent that delivers a one-tap social life™
A tap already hails a ride. Books a room. Now one tap gets you together in real life. Your agent sets up the plan, invites the right people, fills open seats, and settles the bill. You just tap in.
JoyWorksAI removes the planning that kills socializing. We give you a one-tap social life.
Movie night, dinner, the game, large or small. Our AI creates the social opportunities matched to what you want, with the people you want, when you want, priced and held. Nothing to host, browse, or propose.
You didn't work to set this up. JoyWorks did.
You just say yes.

JoyWorks does it all. You just tap in.
AI that gets everyone there, splits the bill, and proves you showed up.
You will never again wait for someone to host a page, browse a calendar, or propose in a thread. Our AI creates the Social Opportunity itself: people, place, activity, time, and price, matched and held. Tap yes, and agents fill open seats and settle the bill.
Match
Machine learning matches people, tastes, budgets, and calendars from real interactions on the platform.
Act
Agents invite the right people, fill open seats, and settle the bill so everyone pays their own share.
Verify
We confirm who actually showed up, turning every plan into ground truth.
Learn
Every verified plan feeds back as real-world data, so the next one fits better.
Producing the one asset the AI era cannot generate and cannot live without.
A new kind of social object. We call it a Social Opportunity.
Patent PendingNot an event.
Not an invite.
Not a group chat that dies at midnight.
A Social Opportunity is a plan the system composes on your behalf, binding four dimensions into a single object: the right people, the right activity, the right time, the right place. It arrives fully formed. You tap yes, and it activates.
85-90% of IRL social time is neither a date nor a ticketed event. The Social Opportunity is how we address that market.

The more AI scales, the more valuable real-world human coordination becomes.
Agents can complete purchases for a person, so a plan gets settled, not just suggested.
Every plan can end with a verified record of who actually came.
Searches for run clubs and walking clubs hit all-time and ten-year highs, and travel groups reached record highs.

Do Your Joy is not the tagline. It is how we work.
We're hiring to restore real life.
That is what every line of code and every campus we onboard serves.
Every valuable surface online has been made effortless: search, payments, transit, commerce. The most valuable one, where people actually live, was left untouched.
We screen for one thing first. Do you want to build AI that improves people's lives every day? If you have shipped ranking, matching, or orchestration systems in production and want to work where the data is the hard part, we should talk.
- Orchestration of real-world social outcomes
- Multi-party constraint satisfaction
- Training models on outcomes the web has never seen
