Private evenings

One night a month, planned only for you.

A date, a birthday, a get together with four friends from out of town. You say what you want. We take care of everything else.

Text us

Tell us the occasion, the number of people, and the date. One line is enough.

We confirm the details

Budget, vibe, allergies, individual preferences, and anything else worth knowing, confirmed before booking.

A group chat with your people

A group chat is opened with you and your date or group. Everyone gets the time, the venue, and the dress code in one place, all at once.

All the heavy lifting

Reservations, tickets, the car, the table, all planned ahead for you. You pay for the activity. The planning comes with your membership.

Your first private evening is on us. Personal gives you four a month for $99. Explorer, $249, is for the person who would rather never plan anything: one task a day, a direct line to your concierge.

Member trips

Socials that leave town.

Planned and run by Paulean Trips. Group rates negotiated months ahead, every share paid in one place, a concierge on call while you're there. Member trips come later; members hear about them first.

Vetting

Three people vouch for you.

This is how we verify members. Nobody joins off a credit card alone.

Apply with your LinkedIn

Name, Bay Area address, profession, and a LinkedIn profile. Paulean reviews it within a day.

Name three people to vouch for you

Colleagues, a former manager, a co-founder. People who can confirm your professional credentials. They can live anywhere.

They verify themselves, and vouch for you

Each person gets a short text. They share their own LinkedIn and then vouch for you, or the vouch does not count. This only takes a minute.

Your access grows with each vouch

One vouch opens Wednesdays. Two adds Sundays. Three opens Friday and Saturday, the big nights.

A vouch is never wasted. Priya confirms Daniel, shares her LinkedIn, and gets a profile. Austin's count goes up by one. She gets a link to share with people in her city.

Why the Bay Area

Small on purpose. Close by design.

A club works when the same people keep running into each other. Nights in San Francisco, Oakland and the Napa area to start; members from anywhere in the Bay.

Residency

You live in the Bay.

A San Francisco Bay Area address is required. The point is that the same faces show up on a Wednesday.

Verified at application
Concierge

A host plans every night.

Reservation made, table held, names known. Run by Paulean, the concierge team that plans trips and evenings across the Bay Area.

Same hosts, same standards
Next cities

Your city opens at fifty.

Every vouch from outside the Bay counts toward that city's launch. When a city reaches fifty, it gets a host and a slate.
