We keep seeing the same contradiction: we’re more digitally connected than ever group chats, DMs, endless feeds yet so many people feel lonelier, more disconnected, and socially “out of shape.” Hanging out becomes just one more decision in an already overloaded day, so when you’re tired or anxious the easiest option is to stay home and scroll. Over time, weekends blur, friendships drift, and your social life looks busy on a screen but pretty empty in real life.
GoodFella is our attempt to build the intelligence to actually help with that. We call it “wellness intelligence”: something that quietly gets to know you over time and then tries to help on its own. It uses what it’s learned about your patterns to suggest small, specific moves that fit you (like “on weekdays when you’re stressed, a quick coffee with X at [place] usually helps” or “you tend to feel better after a walk before calling Y”), helps line up the details, and then steps back so the experience is just between you and the people who matter. On top of that, the platform can proactively reach out to your close friends when you’re struggling and help facilitate the real human connection when you need it the most ( see attached demo)

We’ve put up a simple landing page with a waitlist: https://www.goodfella.app/.
We’d really love thoughts on the idea does this approach resonate with you, and what would you want (or definitely not want) from something like this?
