Our Team

Dottie turns shared interests into real plans.

Dottie is a social app that helps you meet the right people at the right time, from concerts and cold plunges to pottery nights, run clubs, and everything in between.

Our roots are in Toronto nightlife, organizing guest lists, VIP tables, and nights out that brought people together. With over 15 years in software development and deep ties to the entertainment industry, we saw that great experiences create real friendships, and that those connections can happen anywhere.

Vision

We envision cities that feel more human, where meeting new people does not depend on endless swiping or forced small talk. Dottie is built for spontaneous, meaningful connections through shared activities, with community, trust, and real-life interaction at the center.

Mission

Help people turn strangers into familiar faces through spontaneous, real-life activities. Community-first and carefully curated.
