You don’t have to wait long because OOt will soon be released on both Android and iOS in the second half of 2022.
OOt Social will make its debut in Brickell and two other cities that are known for their growing reputation as business and entertainment hubs. It’s the perfect companion for tourists, expats, and international students, like those taking their MBA at FIU’s downtown facility.
With OOt, you can have a finger on the pulse of the local music, sports, culture, and dining scene, thanks to its social map capability that instantly identifies nearby trending events, venues, and deals. “OOt shows you the social world around you. You can join over 80 communities of interest, see where they hang out, and meet new friends,” the company said.
You will soon find QR codes scattered around the city that, when scanned, will give you OOtchievements, which can be used to gain points and win prizes, such as staycations.
For local establishments, OOt Social allows for increased engagement with users and entire communities by way of special deals, scavenger hunts using unique QR codes, and digital ads. A nominal monthly fee will give them access to more premium features, such as performance analytics and a custom business profile. So if you own a restaurant or a fitness studio, you better sign up now!
When asked about how the idea for OOt came about, its developers said that it was originally designed for a different purpose. “We started as yet another dating app,” they said. “We spoke to a lot of people to get their ideas and realized that most of them wanted help building stronger communities — a lot of them were lonely. So we pivoted: we’re working to reduce loneliness for everyone.”
The team also said that tons of new features are being developed, such as community discussion feeds and neighborhood matchmaking. Get on this stat!
