Your next good friend lives 10 minutes away.
The people who get you aren't across the city. They're 10 minutes away, and nobody's introduced you. We do.

What's something you'll happily spend money or time on that a lot of people would consider a waste?
The realization that every passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.
We built Sonderful so a few of those lives can become part of yours.
How Sonderful works
Four simple steps to friendships that stick.
Discover what kind of friend you are
Answer a few honest and intriguing questions about how you see the world — and how you connect with others.
Match to your people
Share your calendar availability and get matched with 4–5 Torontonians who share your values and social style (and live nearby, not across town!).
Meet up nearby
Decide on the exact spot to meet with your matched group from a list of suggested options, then use your Connection Kit to guide the conversation with ready-made questions.
Make it real
Loved people in your group? Reconnect with the ones who clicked — and/or get matched into new groups. Friendship isn't a one-shot deal.
The Sonderful Meetup Guarantee
Give Sonderful enough availability to find you matches in a calendar month, and if we don't match you into a single group, we'll give you a free month — you won't be billed on your next cycle. Click for details.
What makes Sonderful different
Most apps optimize for swipes, matches, and follower counts.
Sonderful is built for one thing: close friendship.

Claim my free month* Founding-member free trial terms:
- Subscription to cost $10/month after free trial — cancel anytime.
- 1 month is defined as 30 days.
- 1 month free trial offer is only available to Founding Members / Founding Sonders.
- Limit 1 free trial per Founding Member / Founding Sonder.
- Founding Members / Founding Sonders are those who signed up for a neighborhood before it 'fully launched'.
- A 'fully launched' neighborhood is one where Sonderful has enabled every eligible Sonderful member who has signed up for Sonderful in that neighborhood to be matched into meetup groups.
- To claim the 1 month free trial, Founding Members / Founding Sonders must activate their trial within 30 days of their neighborhood being 'fully launched'. Activation may require completing the Sonderful personality quiz and providing payment info (to pay for any active subscription months after the free trial).
- After signing up for Sonderful, you will be notified whether your neighborhood has been 'fully launched'.
- Sonderful retains discretion to determine when a neighbourhood has enough members to be 'fully launched.' We cannot predict when this will happen, and if we cannot get enough Sonders to join in a particular area, it is possible we never fully launch there. (We certainly hope not!)
