Building something new for community living

Find your people.
Build community where you live.

Humane Living is an AI agent that helps people nearby who share your values meet in real life — and slowly turn those connections into the community you've always wanted to live in.

Why we exist

We live surrounded by people. And have never felt more alone.

Most of us don't know our neighbors. Friends live across town. Meeting new people feels harder every year. And our homes — sealed units stacked next to other sealed units — quietly reinforce the distance.

We believe it doesn't have to be this way. Decades of research keep landing on the same answer: what makes a life good is the people in it. So we're using AI to help bring those people closer — in real life, where you actually live.

“The greatest predictor of human happiness is the quality of our relationships.”

— Harvard Study of Adult Development · 85 years
What we're building

An AI that brings people together — so they can build the community they want to live in.

Community first. Everything else follows.

Real connection

Match by values and lifestyle. Meet in person, not in feeds.

Built together

The community decides what it wants — gatherings, projects, even places to live.

Human scale

Small groups. Local roots. A way of living that's calmer, more present, more shared.

Meet Humane

An AI concierge for community living.

Humane lives where you already are: WhatsApp. No app to download, no profile to fill, no swiping. Just a warm conversation that, over time, helps you build a life with more people in it.

Communities that want to live closer will be able to co-create shared neighborhoods and homes.

Who it's for

Different lives. The same longing for community.

We're starting with four kinds of communities — but the idea is simple: whatever your life looks like, there are people nearby who'd be glad to share part of theirs with you.

Humane Creators

Creatives, founders and curious minds looking for collaborators and a more intentional way of living.

Humane Family

Families who value shared spaces, kids growing up around other kids, and a life with less rushing.

Humane Active

People drawn to movement, nature and wellbeing — looking for a tribe that shares those rhythms.

Humane Aging

Adults in their 60s and beyond who want active aging surrounded by purpose, friends and care.

Where we're starting

Two cities first. Built to travel anywhere.

We're launching in São Paulo and Madrid — two cities with vibrant urban life and a real hunger for closer, more intentional ways of living.
