Connections Made Easy
Meet the people already around you.
Baxo helps you meet new people, network, make friends, and explore dating opportunities with people physically nearby. Real people. Real proximity. Real connections.
Baxo is entirely free to use. No subscription required.
How it works
Three steps to real connections
Open the app
Grant location access and see a radial map of people physically near you, not profiles scattered across a city.
See who's nearby
Browse profiles within meters. Tap someone who catches your interest and choose your intent.
Connect & chat
Send a request. Once they accept, messaging unlocks. No messages until you both say yes.
Connection types
Friendship, networking, or open to meet. Your choice
Every request carries intent. The other person sees exactly what kind of connection you're offering before they decide.
Intent-based requests
See who's already here, not who's 50 miles away.
Friendship
Make friends on the GO
Casual, social connections with people who are actually in your orbit: at the café, the park, the event.
Networking
Connect with new people.
Professional or community networking with people nearby. Real conversations, real proximity.
Open to Meet
Chill and Chat.
Open to dating or deeper connection, always consent-gated, always your choice who gets through.
