June 2026 · TestFlight live · 6 founding slots

Help us test
before we launch.

This page is for bar owners and GMs — not the public app download. The consumer app is in TestFlight now. We're running a June partner beta with real singles at three to four bars in Market Square + Gay Street — host agreed test nights, use the live partner dashboard, and tell us what works before the city-wide campaign. Founding partners get first in for August 29 and locked long-term rates.

June soft launch

Real users.
Real feedback.

Before the street team, before the mystery QR campaign, before August 29 — we need a small cohort of bars willing to run the app in the wild and tell us what's working.

01 · JUNE
You're on the map

Your venue goes live in GroupOut for scheduled beta nights. Partner dashboard from day one — tonight's counts, trends, banner updates. Aggregate stats only; never guest lists.

02 · JUNE
We bring testers

Real singles—not a staged crowd—Go Live at your bar on agreed test nights. We observe flow, friction, and what GMs actually need — and fix the app before public launch.

03 · JUNE
You shape the product

Short debrief after each session. Your feedback on operations, signage, and the in-room experience goes straight into the build. Low lift — no activation moment required in June.

04 · AFTER
First in for August

Beta bars lock founding-partner status for the August 29 consumer launch night — campaign credit, routed crowd, and the best long-term terms. Bars that sit out June can still apply later; they won't be first.

What is GroupOut?
Real-time social networking for singles.

June: beta test with 3–4 venues. August 29: consumer launch night for first-in partners. This page is venue partners only — not the public app download.

Not a dating app. No swiping. No matching algorithm. No profiles you build before you meet anyone.
The map shows venues, not strangers. Singles see which rooms are alive tonight — counts, activity, the night that's actually happening — and decide where to be.
You only see the room once you're in it. Arrive, go live with a fresh photo, see the other singles at your venue. Say hi in person. Phone goes back in pocket.
We don't match people. We make the night legible. The venue does the rest — which is exactly why launch partners matter.
Two phases

June beta now.
August pays it off.

June beta — what we need
Low lift. High input.
  • Host agreed test nights in June. A handful of evenings where real users Go Live at your bar. Staff like a normal busy Saturday — we're not running the full street campaign yet.
  • One GM point of contact. Quick prep call, access to the partner dashboard, honest feedback after each session.
  • Market Square + Gay Street only. We're keeping the beta tight so we can iterate fast — three to four venues total.
June beta: no platform fee. You're helping us tune the product before launch — not paying for a campaign yet.
First in — the long game
What beta partners get.
  • Partner dashboard starting June. Live counts, 7-night trends, banner + specials in the app — aggregate only, never guest lists.
  • Locked in for August 29. Consumer launch night — street team, QR trail, stage reveal, singles routed to your room on purpose. Named on campaign, press, and social.
  • Founding partner terms (locked). Preferred founding rates, locked in before public pricing — we walk through the numbers on a quick demo call, live dashboard included. Six founding slots in neighborhood one — beta partners get priority.
  • The line you own. "The bars that helped build GroupOut before Knoxville saw it." Beta slots are three to four venues — first yeses get priority.
August activation moment (2–3 min in-bar) applies to launch night — not required during June tests.
The long game · August 29

What beta partners
build toward.

June is the lab. August 29 is the main event — only for venues that committed early. Here's the night you're first in line for.

01 · T-3 WEEKS
The street team

Before August 29: "Single and done swiping?" signs across Knoxville. QR codes only. No app name yet. The city starts wondering what's coming.

02 · T-7 DAYS
The text thread

Signups join a vague-but-thrilling SMS chain. "Pick your favorite kind of room." "Be in Market Square Saturday the 29th."

03 · NIGHT-OF
Market Square

Hundreds of singles converge on the square. A live reveal on stage: GroupOut is here, the app goes live for the crowd — and founding partners are already on the map.

04 · AND THEN
They walk to you

Your bar fills with singles who came out for this on purpose — phones out, app open, ready to meet in the room. You host the moment.
