For organizersCompany offsites and socials

Introduce people who’d never otherwise share a meeting.

You flew everyone in so they’d meet, and they’re standing with their own team. Flare makes introductions across the company by what people know and what they’re curious about, with no HR data, no org chart, and no one watching who talked to whom.

A team social of up to 50 costs $79.99, once. A full offsite of up to 250 costs $299.99.

Teams stay in teams

Offsites cost a lot, and the social hour still looks like the org chart.

Forced fun backfires

Nobody asked for a human bingo card. Grown professionals can tell when they’re being managed.

New hires stay invisible

People who joined remotely last spring still know only their own team.

Each team stands with itself.

One code on the big screen, three quick questions.

Flare looks for people who should know each other.

Sales finds someone in engineering. On purpose.

Questions you could use tonight.

Flare only knows what you ask. Here’s a starting template for this kind of event, and why each question is there. Copy it, then change whatever doesn’t sound like your crowd.

What your guests see when they scan in. Illustrated with this template.

  1. What would you like to understand better?

    Needs and offeringsHigh importanceMultiple choice

    Matches curiosity with expertise, across teams.

  2. What could you explain to someone over a drink?

    Ask onlyMultiple choice

    Same answer choices, so both directions are checked.

  3. Which is closest to your weekend?

    Shared answersNormal importanceMultiple choice

    A way into a conversation that has nothing to do with work.

Avoid questions about performance, pay, health or anything HR would flag. Keep to skills and curiosity, and remember nothing is shown to the other person or to you.

How to build this in the appHow to write good questions

How the night runs.

You start the event from your own iPhone and put the code where guests can see it. Everything after that happens on their phones.

  1. Before

    Mention it in the offsite note, so people install the app beforehand.

  2. 18:00

    The social opens. The code is on the big screen, or on the slide at the end of the last session.

  3. 18:15

    One sentence from a leader. Flares on.

  4. 18:20

    First introductions. People walk over to someone they’ve only seen on a video call.

  5. 19:30

    End the event. Share the totals in the wrap-up, and nothing more.

What organizers ask.

All questions

Can leadership see who talked to whom?
No. Flare doesn’t give hosts that information. You see totals only, and answers are deleted when the event ends. It’s why people can answer honestly.
Does it connect to our HR system or SSO?
No, and it doesn’t need to. There are no accounts or employee records. People install the app on their own iPhone and scan the code.
Is it OK to run on personal phones?
That’s how it’s designed. Nothing company-related is needed, and a guest can delete everything from the app’s settings afterward.
