3

Youre in!

Chat with the group, ask questions, share photos and memories after the vibe. All in one place.

We keep it real

We only let in real people. Hosts are ID-verified. Local phone numbers prioritized. Mutual reviews after every vibe. Anything feels off means instant report and permanent ban. Simple.

Why Ahora?

Because everything else feels fake.

You know that feeling. You move to a new city, or maybe you have lived here for years, and you are still looking for your people. The real ones who know this place inside out. But everywhere you look, it is the same thing:

  • Apps full of staged experiences that feel like work
  • Events that are just photo ops, not real connections
  • Locals staying home because nothing public feels authentic anymore

So I built Ahora for us. The ones with the atico in Eixample, the abuela who cooks lethal paella, the crew that always knows the best spots. This is where the real Barcelona finally gets to share.

How we are different

vs Meetup

Them:

25 people in a circle. Language exchanges and tech networking. You go once, never again.

Ahora:

4-12 people max. Hosts approve every person. Real vibes with people you might actually see again.

vs Airbnb Experiences

Them:

Professional tours disguised as local. Same 50 power hosts. Scripted experiences. 60-120 euros.

Ahora:

Someones actual flat, actual atico, actual vibe. You are not a customer. You got let in.

vs Fever

Them:

Beautiful but corporate. Planned 3 weeks ahead. Candlelight concerts. An event.

Ahora:

Sunset beers at Bunkers, 8 people max. Posted today at 5pm. By 7:30 you are watching the city light up with people who actually live here.

vs Couchsurfing Hangouts

Them:

Good vibes but chaotic. No verification. Hit or miss quality. Free but unpredictable.

Ahora:

Curated vibes. Verified hosts. Consistent quality. Spontaneous or planned. The good parts without the chaos.

Do what you love. Make money having fun.

Why not earn while doing what you already enjoy?

Host vibes you would do anyway. Vermut on your atico. Cooking with friends. Morning runs by the sea. Now you can share them with cool people and get paid for it.

Host vibes you would do anyway. Vermut on your atico. Jam sessions. Movie nights. Glass of wine.

Meet people who share your interests. Real connections, not transactions.

Spontaneous or planned. Free or paid. Your rules, your timing.

Build your crew. Some people come once. Some become regulars. Some become friends.

Share experiences you love with people who appreciate them. Get paid while having fun. Simple.

Imagine what's possible.

Your atico

Any Sunday

Sunday afternoon. You post a vermut session on your atico. 6 spots. By evening, you have met a photographer from Gracia, a chef from Poble Sec, and someone who knows the best hidden bars in Montjuic. This is how connections happen.

The beach

6:30am any day

Sunrise at Barceloneta. You join a surf session posted 2 hours ago. Everyone paddles out together. By 9am, you have new friends and plans for next Saturday. No awkward introductions. Just shared waves.

A kitchen in Poble Sec

When food brings people together

Your abuela's croquetas recipe. 8 people around her kitchen table. She teaches, everyone learns, stories flow. Three hours later, full bellies and new friends who actually speak the language. This is Barcelona.

Show your support.
Join the waitlist.

We are planning to launch between January and March. Be the first to know. We are investing in marketing so all locals know about Ahora from day one.

Early supporters shape what this becomes. Your city, your rules.
