Sarafun · word-of-mouth on Telegram
A city
where you
belong.
A Telegram community for meet-ups, Random Coffee, swapping advice and book sharing. Right inside the chat you're already living in.
Heads up: the app interface is currently in Russian — we're working on the English version.
Six sections · one app
Like your home, but bigger
Each section does one simple thing. Together they make a living community.
- EventsDinners, workshops, morning runs. Subscribe, leave a review, add to your calendar.
- Random CoffeeEvery two weeks the system pairs you with someone for a chat over coffee.
- RequestsNeed an accountant, a travel buddy, a doctor, a restaurant tip? Ask your people.
- SharingBooks and board games circulate hand to hand. The system remembers who has what.
- PeopleKindred spirits. Profiles, skills, what they can help with, what they're looking for.
- ProfileFill it in once — and you'll show up in every interest-based match from then on.

FAQ
What people usually ask
Yes, Sarafun is free for participants right now. We may add paid features later, but core participation in the community will stay free. You can already support the project with Telegram Stars.
To keep bots and anonymous trolls out. Every member has a real Telegram account, and no one can message you out of nowhere.
Every two weeks you pick who you'd like to meet (guy, girl, couple). The algorithm pairs you up, you say hi and go grab coffee.
Any. Sarafun isn't tied to geography — communities form around shared interests and people, not around a particular city. If no one's around you yet, drop us a line — we'll help gather the first ones.
We only store what you put in your profile yourself. All chat lives inside Telegram, and we don't see it. You can delete your profile with one click.
