Why Are We Here?

Ever scroll through a feed packed with other people's lives and feel like you're on the sidelines? It's a weird feeling. You can see what hundreds of "friends" are up to, but when you actually want to grab a coffee, find someone for that new climbing gym, or get a board game night going, you're met with silence. It's like being in a crowded room where no one is really talking to each other. We're watching lives being lived online instead of actually living our own.
That feeling is exactly why we started Vivamos.
Honestly, this didn't start with a business plan or a market analysis. It started with a very real, very human frustration. We looked around and asked ourselves: what if technology could help us get into the world, not escape from it?
The name, Vivamos, means "Let's live" in Spanish. It's not just a brand; it’s our entire mission. It’s an invitation to push back against passively watching life go by. We’re not just building another app; we’re trying to build a tool that gets you out from behind the screen.
Our goal is to finally close the gap between the things you want to do and actually doing them. Here’s how:
Stop Saying "Someday." We all have that list of things we’d “love to try sometime.” Vivamos is designed to take that vague intention and turn it into a concrete plan: "I'm going this Saturday at 2 PM." It’s about overcoming that initial inertia.
Find Your People. For Real. We help you connect with people who share your specific interests—whether it's a deep love for '80s sci-fi, a passion for early morning hikes, or a quest to find the best tacos in the city. These are the foundations of real community, not just a list of followers.
Stumble Into Adventure. We want to help you discover the spontaneous, amazing things happening right around you—the pop-up art show, the pickup soccer game, the neighborhood potluck you didn't know about.
Here’s a strange thing for an app to say: we want you to close our app. Our success isn't measured by how much time you spend scrolling on our platform. Success for us is a new friendship that was formed, a passion you just discovered, or a great memory you made last weekend. Our favorite metrics are the stories you'll tell later.
We believe life is meant to be participated in, not just observed. We believe the best moments are messy, unscripted, and shared face-to-face.
This is our attempt to get back to that. Back to each other, back to our communities, and back to the simple, vibrant act of living.
So, let's live. Vivamos.
