Company Overview
Enso is a proximity-based social platform that connects people through shared physical spaces and declared intent. Users discover nearby people open to the same things — networking, socializing, dating, events — and enter time-limited "collisions" designed to move from screen to face-to-face.
Enso is a proximity-based social discovery platform that transforms shared spaces into meaningful connections. Unlike traditional dating apps or social networks, Enso requires real-world presence as the prerequisite for interaction. Users declare their intent — what they're open to right now — and discover nearby people with matching interests through mutual consent. Conversations happen in time-limited "collision" sessions that expire in 24 hours, creating urgency to meet face-to-face rather than scroll endlessly.
The platform serves three audiences: users seeking real-world connection, creators building local followings, and venues looking to drive foot traffic through events and community. Enso is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada.

What Enso Is
A proximity-based social platform with three modes (User, Creator, Venue) that connects people through shared physical spaces, declared intent, and mutual consent.
What Enso Is Not
Not a dating app (though dating is one intent). Not a social media feed. Not a check-in app. Enso is a connection platform where real-world presence is the filter.
Market Context
Enso sits at the intersection of three converging markets — social discovery, live events, and the creator economy — all trending toward real-world connection.

How It Works
1. Declare Intent
Users choose what they're open to: networking, socializing, dating, live music, coworking, etc. This filters discovery for alignment, not just proximity.
2. Discover Nearby
Find people near you with matching intents. No swiping through infinite profiles — discovery is contextual, real-time, and location-based.
3. Signal & Match
Both sides must express interest. No unwanted contact. Mutual consent creates a "collision" — a time-limited conversation.
4. Collide
Collisions expire in 24 hours. The countdown creates urgency to meet in person — not to keep chatting on a screen.
Brand Assets
Name
Ensō (en-so) — from the Japanese calligraphy circle symbolizing wholeness, presence, and the beauty of imperfection. In Zen Buddhism, the ensō is drawn in a single brushstroke, representing a moment of the mind fully present. This reflects the platform's philosophy: be here, be open, connect now.
Brand Colors
Typography
Display: DM Serif Display — for headlines and brand moments
Body: DM Sans — for all interface and body copy
Logo Mark
The Enso logo is a broken circle (ensō ring) rendered in Enso Purple (#6C3CE1). The gap in the circle represents openness — the invitation to connect. The mark can be used on dark or light backgrounds with appropriate contrast.
