Just moved to DC?
Find your people.
Hangpost is the app for making friends in the city you live in now, built for the people who just got here. It works like a neighborhood posterboard: someone posts “trivia at 7, anyone in?” and you tap I’m in.
You set your neighborhood once. No GPS tracking, no map of people. Free for members.

No swiping·No cold DMs·We never track where you are
How it works
Three steps. None of them is “message a stranger first.”
See what’s happening near you.
A board of real plans from people nearby: “sunset run at 6:30, anyone in?” Not a feed to scroll. A thing to do tonight.
Tap “I’m in.”
No swiping, no cold DMs, no being the one who texts first. The hangout already exists, you just show up.
Keep the people you click with.
Hangpost keeps re-introducing you to the same nearby people, so “someone I met once” becomes your regular crew.
The whole product is one card
This is what a hangout looks like on the board. Someone posts it, you tap I’m in, you show up. That’s it. We’re opening DC one neighborhood at a time, starting with Navy Yard, so the first board you see is full of plans you can actually walk to.
Sunset run on the riverwalk, 6:30. Easy pace, anyone in?

Built so you never feel watched
The guarantees, in plain words.
- You set your neighborhood once. No live location. Ever.
- No map of people. We don’t have one and never will.
- Nobody DMs you uninvited. You connect first, then you can talk.
- Real, verified people. And we show you why we introduced you.
