Genuine question and I want honest answers even if they hurt.

My team and I got frustrated with the same problem most people who eat out regularly will recognise. You open any discovery platform, search for somewhere to eat tonight, and get served the same ten places that have clearly paid to be there or accumulated enough reviews to game the algorithm. The actual quality of the experience is almost irrelevant to how visible the venue is.

So we built Yenta. Instead of searching by cuisine or location you just describe the mood. Something like "low lighting, not too loud, somewhere that feels like a real find rather than a tourist trap." It lives inside WhatsApp so there is nothing to download and it books the table in the same conversation.

We are launching May 15th and currently building toward 100k Founding Members before we open it up publicly.

Here is what I actually want to know from this thread:

Is the vibe-based search something you would genuinely use or does it sound good in theory and fall apart in practice? And what would make you trust an AI recommendation over your own instincts or a friend's suggestion?

Try it on WhatsApp now and tell me where it gets it wrong: [WhatsApp Link]

Or grab a Founding Member spot before May 15th here: [Waitlist Link]

Brutal feedback genuinely welcome.

So my team and I have been building an AI restaurant concierge that lives inside WhatsApp. You tell it what you're in the mood for and it finds you somewhere worth your evening.

We're launching early access on May 15th and honestly the waitlist growth has been moving but we need to push harder.

Has anyone here successfully scaled a waitlist to 100k organically? What actually worked for you? Paid vs organic, community building, influencers, referral mechanics?

We have a referral loop built in already where nominating someone gets you priority access but curious if anyone has cracked this at speed before.
