Muddies
People you already trust.
A Muddy is a friendship both people approve. Once connected, Glow can show a broad proximity band, never their precise position on a map.
- Mutual approval first
- Privacy-safe proximity
- Ghost Mode whenever you want out
Privacy-first proximity
When your Muddies are close, they glow.
Know when the right people are around. Turn a quick wave into coffee, a plan, or something spontaneous — without broadcasting exactly where you are.
- Rough proximity, never a map
- Visibility stays on your terms
- Muddies require mutual approval
The feeling
Not a map. A sense that someone is around.
Mad Buddy turns proximity into a softer social signal. People feel more present as they get closer, while the geography stays private.
- 01 · NoticeGlow
A Muddy becomes more present as they get closer, using broad proximity bands instead of their precise position.
- 02 · SignalWave or Ping
Show you are open to a hello, or ask whether meeting up sounds good.
- 03 · Make it realMeetups
Invite Muddies or meet new people nearby, agree a time and place, and turn the moment into something real.
Around you
Your friends become more present.

Close enough to connect.
You may see a broad band such as “Just Around · 0–100 m.” That range explains the category, not a Muddy's precise measured distance or position. Coordinates, routes and map pins stay private.
Two ways to connect
Your people. And the people you choose to discover.
Mad Buddy separates trusted friendship from deliberate discovery, so the social context is always clear.
Linkr
People you might want to know.
Switch on a Linkr session when you want to discover someone new. You choose when discovery is active, and a real connection still requires mutual choice.
- You choose when discovery is on
- No exact-location reveal
- Connection happens only by mutual choice
Different social contexts. The same privacy standard: Mad Buddy gives people enough context to decide whether to connect, not enough detail to follow one another around.
From maybe to actually meeting
Proximity is only useful if something happens next.
Meetups turn a social signal into a shared time and place. Invite Muddies directly, or use Meet New People when you are open to meeting someone nearby.

Privacy is the product
Know enough to meet. Never enough to track.
Mad Buddy deliberately withholds the pieces that turn social awareness into surveillance.
You can know
Enough context to decide.
- That someone you trust is roughly nearby
- Whether they have chosen to be visible
- Whether they are open to doing something
You never get
The pieces needed to follow someone.
- Exact GPS coordinates
- A live map or map pin
- Street names or addresses
- A person's precise measured distance
- Direction of travel
- Location history
Need to disappear? Ghost Mode.
Pause proximity visibility when you want privacy. Control should be immediate and understandable.
Real life is the point
The next hangout could already be around you.
