Laila is an event-based dating app that helps you skip the small talk and get to real-life connections faster. Instead of swiping endlessly, you can post or ask to join specific date ideas. This way, you'll meet people with shared interests and start your date with a fun activity already planned.

Unlike traditional apps that focus on profiles and endless messaging, Laila is all about action. We encourage users to post date ideas like "Coffee at Central Park" or "Live music in SoHo." It's about getting off your phone and into real life, fast. Our goal is to make dating fun and spontaneous again.

Posting a date is simple. Just open the app, click the “Post a Date” button, and either share your own idea or use Laila’s AI Date Planner to generate suggestions based on your interests. Whether it’s grabbing a drink, checking out a local event, or something more unique, you can add the details, date, and time. Once your date is live, others can show interest by sending a like to it and joining you!

Yes! If you see a date idea that interests you, simply send a like to show you're interested. If there’s mutual interest, you'll get connected in the chat, where you can finalize the details and meet up.

Right now, Laila is live in New York City. We’re working on expanding to more cities soon, so stay tuned! Want Laila in your city? Let us know by following us on social media and sharing your thoughts—we’re always listening!

Absolutely. At Laila, safety is our top priority. We thoroughly vet every profile by cross-checking user information and social media accounts to ensure that every user is real and authentic. Additionally, to enhance safety, users can post date ideas without specifying the exact location upfront. For example, you can post “Let’s grab Italian” and finalize the location in the chat once you’ve matched with someone interested in joining. This ensures that details are shared only when both parties feel comfortable

Laila connects you with people who share your interests through real-life date ideas. You can either post a date idea or like dates posted by others. If someone likes your date or you both like the same date, it’s a match! Once matched, you can chat to finalize the details and plan your meetup.

Absolutely! We love hearing from our users. If you have feedback, suggestions, or need help with anything, you can contact us through the app or email us at contact@laila.nyc. We're always working to make Laila better!
