I work the bar at Lido House. Every Friday I watch the same thing — people walk in alone, looking around, texting their friends "where are you?" I built wut.do so nobody has to do that anymore.

Founder · Bar Manager, Lido House Newport Beach

Active bar operator

Built by someone who works nights, not a VC office

Zero fake users

Real Newport Beach community, real people going out

Product + experience

wut.do connects to the bar culture it was born in

why wut.do wins

Everything else
doesn't work.

You've tried all of them. None of them solve the problem.

💬

Group texts

  • "Where is everyone?" thread that dies
  • Different people give different answers
  • Still don't know if plans changed
  • No central feed — just chaos
📍

Snap Map

  • Passive — shows where you are, not where you're going
  • No intent — just location
  • No join mechanic
  • No social coordination
💀

IRL app

  • Raised $200M
  • 95% of users were bots
  • Shut down in 2023
  • Built for scale, not for real people
this one

wut.do

  • Live feed: where your people are going tonight
  • Intentional posts — venue, time, who's in
  • One tap to join — they get notified
  • Built by a bar manager for real nightlife

IRL raised $200M · had 12M users · 95% were bots · shut down 2023 · wut.do is doing the organic version.

  • Finally. I've been doing this manually with Find My for two years. Someone built the actual app.
    Tyler B.Newport Beach
  • The amount of group texts I send just to figure out where everyone is going on a Friday is embarrassing. This fixes that.
    Sara K.Corona del Mar
  • Love that it's built by someone who actually works in the industry. You can tell the difference.
    Marcus D.Huntington Beach
  • Partiful is for planning parties. wut.do is for the spontaneous 'wait where is everyone tonight' moment. Different thing entirely.
    Alex M.Newport Beach
  • The bar scene in Newport is huge but incredibly fragmented. This is the connective tissue it's needed.

questions

Got questions?

When does wut.do launch?

+

Summer 2026. We're launching in Newport Beach first — one city, done right. After we prove it works here (and it will), we expand.

Is this just for bars?

+

No — it's for any plan tonight. Bars, restaurants, concerts, rooftops, boat nights, house parties, whatever. If you're going somewhere and want your people to know, that's what wut.do is for.

How is this different from Snap Map?

+

Snap Map is passive — it shows where you are right now. wut.do is intentional — you post where you're going tonight, and your people can join. It's the difference between surveillance and coordination.

How is this different from Partiful?

+

Partiful is for planned events — birthdays, parties with invites. wut.do is for the spontaneous Friday night question: 'where is everyone going?' Different problem entirely.

Why start in Newport Beach?

+

Because that's where the founder works. Jayden is the bar manager at Lido House — he watches this problem happen every weekend from behind the bar. Newport Beach has a tight social network, a packed nightlife scene, and it's small enough to prove the concept before scaling.

Will this ever come to my city?

+

Yes. Newport Beach is the proof of concept. Once the product is solid and the growth is organic, we expand to other coastal markets — Laguna, Huntington, Dana Point, then beyond. Join the waitlist and we'll keep you posted.

Is the app free?

+

The core app is free. Venue features and operator tools will be where the business model lives — but for users, wut.do will always be free to use.

What about privacy — can anyone see where I'm going?

+

You control your visibility. You post intentionally — nobody sees your plans without you choosing to share them. This isn't passive tracking. You decide when you post, where you post, and who can see it.
