01 / WHAT MATCHA DOES

Coffee chats,
set up for you.

matcha is a web app for university students. It introduces you to students on your own campus who share your interests, then sets up a 20-minute coffee chat at a time that works for both of you.

Read the privacy policy

It finds people worth meeting.

Tell matcha what you’re studying, building, or curious about. Each day it suggests a few students on your campus, with a reason you should meet.

It schedules the chat.

When you both say yes, matcha finds a time you’re both free, sets up a 20-minute coffee chat, and lets you message each other.

Why you sign in with Google.

matcha uses the name, school email address, and profile picture from your Google account to create your account and confirm which university you attend.

Why matcha asks for Google Calendar.

Connecting Google Calendar is optional. matcha reads only when you’re busy, never what your events are, and uses it only to suggest meeting times that work for both of you. matcha never sells your data or uses it for ads.

02 / A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Before you
say hello.

Who is matcha for?

University students who are curious about what the people around them are building, researching, or figuring out. Your major is a starting point. Your interests and work are what make an introduction worthwhile.

Do we have to go to the same school?

For now, yes. matcha matches you with students on your own campus so the two of you can actually sit down for coffee. Cross-school introductions are on the roadmap.

What if my calendar is a mess?

That’s exactly the idea. When you connect your calendar, matcha uses your availability to find a time that works for both of you and suggests a café on campus. You can skip the connection initially.

What should we talk about?

Start with what you’re working on, something you’re stuck on, or the interest that brought you together. You’ll have a little context before you meet. No pitch required.
