What we’re about
Let’s be honest — making real friends in Berlin can be weirdly hard.
New city, busy lives, lots of small talk… but not much real connection.
That’s why we started Matchbuddy.
We’re on a mission to make actual friendship easier — where you text each other back, meet again, and feel like you’re building something that lasts.
And we don’t just hope it happens — we help make it happen.
