Real people. Shared milestones. Meaningful connection.
Whatever you’re going through, someone else is as well.
Find your people.
aswell helps you find people navigating the same milestones you are, from new jobs and new babies to career changes, burnout, big moves and everything that overlaps in between.
Because sometimes the beginning of a friendship is as simple as: “Oh, me as well.”

Life doesn’t happen one milestone at a time.
You can be starting a new job and becoming a parent.
Moving somewhere new and rethinking your career.
Feeling ambitious and completely burned out.
Growing, celebrating, questioning, starting over, sometimes all at once.
That’s real life. It blends.
aswell brings those pieces together, helping you find people who share one Milestone, several of them, or simply understand where you are right now.
Your milestones make up your experience.
Their milestones make up theirs.
Somewhere in the overlap, you find each other.
The best connections often start with “me too.”
Or, around here: “Me as well.”
Someone else started the new job.
Someone else moved somewhere they know no one.
Someone else is figuring out parenthood and a career at the same time.
Someone else is ready for a change but has no idea what comes next.
aswell makes those people easier to find.
Not because you need to have everything in common. Just enough to say, “Oh. You too?”
Find people through what life looks like right now.
aswell connects people through Milestones, the moments and changes shaping your work, life and everything between.
Step 1
Tell us what you're navigating.
Create your profile and choose the Milestones that feel relevant right now. Pick one. Pick five. Change them whenever life changes.
Step 2
See where you overlap.
Your Milestones help aswell surface people, conversations and communities that make sense for you, nearby, in your industry or across the wider community.
Step 3
Find your “as well” people.
Discover people who are navigating something you are, too. Sometimes you'll share one Milestone. Sometimes your lives will overlap in ways you didn't expect.
Step 4
Turn common ground into real connection.
Talk in the feed, join a Circle, grab coffee, go to a Gathering or simply keep showing up.
Because finding someone you relate to is only the beginning.
Whatever you’re in, you don’t have to be the only one in it.
Your Milestones tell aswell what matters in your life right now.
Starting a new job

Becoming a parent

Changing careers

Moving somewhere new

Becoming a manager
me as well.
Recovering from burnout

Going back to work

Starting a new job

Career change
First-time manager
Preparing for a baby
Growing our family
Work stress
Burnout reset
Milestones change. Your profile can change with them.
No two lives blend the same way.
One Milestone is only part of the picture.
Your experience might be a new role + working parent + new city. Someone else might be career change + caregiving + burnout reset. And then you find the place where your lives overlap.
That overlap is where aswell begins.
Every Milestone adds another layer to your experience and another way to find someone who gets a piece of it.
Find your people through every Milestone.
Circles
Find your people. Then keep finding each other.
Shared experiences can introduce you. Circles help turn that recognition into relationship.
Circles are smaller communities built around a shared Milestone, place, schedule or experience, so you can see familiar names, have better conversations and actually get to know the people behind the profiles.
New managers.
Working parents.
Career changers.
People nearby who want coffee on Fridays.
Specific enough to have something in common. Small enough to actually connect.

You don’t need another endless feed of people you don’t know talking about things you don’t care about. aswell organizes conversations around the Milestones and Circles that matter to you.
Ask the question.
Share the small win.
Say the thing you’ve been wondering if anyone else feels.
And hear: “Me as well.”

Anyone else's toddler wake up at 5am today or is that just me?

See you all at Thursday's coffee?
Gatherings
Take the connection somewhere real.
Some friendships start with a comment.
Some start over coffee.
aswell Gatherings make it easier to turn online common ground into real-life connection, from casual coffee and walks to small group meetups and community events.
Because the goal isn’t more followers. It’s more people you’d actually want to know.
What we believe
We’re more than one thing at a time.
A title doesn’t tell you who someone is. Neither does their age, company, industry, neighborhood or relationship status.
People are made up of experiences that overlap, change and blend over time.
aswell was built around the idea that those experiences can bring us closer. Not because our lives are exactly the same. Because somewhere inside them, there is often a point of connection.
One person says
“I’m going through that.”
Another says
“Me as well.”
For workplaces
Help your people find support without watching what they say.
aswell is built for people first. Employers can make existing resources, programs and support easier for employees to discover while gaining a broad understanding of what their workforce is navigating.
But the personal side of aswell stays personal.
- Individual profiles stay private.
- Posts and messages stay private.
- Personal activity stays private.
Employers see aggregate patterns, not individual people. Because connection only works when people trust the space they’re in.

Aggregate only. No names, no messages, no individual profiles.
