Building better networking for startup events & communities | 2x Founder | Developer

Professional networking is weird.

We collect hundreds of LinkedIn connections...

...then build relationships with maybe 5 of them.

Somewhere along the way, networking became about collecting contacts instead of continuing conversations.

If you're a founder, student, organizer, or coworker who's tired of networking that goes nowhere —

And if you've been following along since I started talking about this problem - thank you.

The conversation happened. The relationship never did. We've all been there.

We built something for it.

Relven is live.

Relven is a privacy-safe professional networking platform.

Events. Campuses. Coworking. Communities.

Every connection is intentional, mutual, and consent-based.
No cold messages. No noise.

Just real professional relationships that survive past the room.

Talked to 6 founders this week. Same question to all:

"What's your biggest frustration after a networking event?"

6 different answers. Same root cause: "I meant to follow up." "I forgot what we talked about." "I didn't know what to say."
Not discovery. Follow-through.

[Tushar Satpute @expl00it_]

Why do we forget people we meet at events?

Not because we don't care.

No shared context after the room empties. No reason to reach out beyond "nice meeting you." No structure for what's next.

Memory needs a hook. Most networking gives you none.

Stripe is invite-only in India, so I built a self-hostable, zero-fee alternative.

Something's been bugging me for months.

Every founder I talk to has the same story: great conversation at an event, real connection, both meant to follow up... nothing happens.
Not because anyone lied. The moment just slips.
Trying to figure out why.

Myth: collect as many connections as possible.
Reality: most of your opportunities come from a handful of people you actually keep talking to.

40 names in your phone isn't a network. 3 people who'd reply today — that's a network.
What's your real number?
