how it works

Three steps, sixty seconds.

The whole thing is built around one idea: short, intentional conversations beat endless scrolling for actually learning something.

§ 01

Pick a topic

Choose what you want to learn — react, go, rust, infra, career, anything. The matchmaker weights pairs by overlap.

§ 02

Talk for 60 seconds

Quick, focused, peer-to-peer video. Both want more? Mutual +10s extends. No accounts to follow, no DMs to dodge.

§ 03

Capture the knowledge

Write one note about what you learned. It goes into your knowledge log forever — your own private library of things smart strangers told you.

what people learned this week

Real notes. Real strangers.

Every session ends with one note about what was useful. Names are stripped — the knowledge stays.

the rant

The opposite of a connection request.

We built devved after one too many "hi, I'd love to connect" messages that went nowhere. This is what happens when you cut the middlemen out and just put two people in a room for a minute.

  • No more waiting on LinkedIn.
    No connection request. No "hope this finds you well." Just talk.
  • Skip the algorithm.
    There's no feed. No newsletter. No badge for posting. The matchmaker pairs you and gets out of the way.
  • Strangers who actually help.
    Both of you opted in for 60 seconds. There's no cold pitch waiting at the end.
  • Build real connections.
    The kind you remember — because they handed you one useful thing, not 200 generic posts.
why people come back

Short. Honest. Memorable.

I learned more about pg's vacuum behaviour in 60 seconds than I had in 3 weeks of reading. Then I closed the tab and went and fixed it.

Finally a place to talk to other devs that doesn't turn into LinkedIn. The 60-second timer is the magic — nobody pitches you anything.

I'm a beginner and I was scared, but the format makes it impossible to embarrass yourself. Worst case it's awkward for one minute.

questions

FAQ

Is it really only 60 seconds?
Yes. The timer starts when the call connects. If both of you want to keep going, hit +10s; the other person has to agree. You can extend up to +60s twice.
What if I don't have anything useful to share?
You probably do — "here's a tool I use every day" counts. But if you really don't, just listen and rate honestly. The matchmaker uses your topic preference, so you'll meet people who picked something you're learning.
Who sees my data?
Only the person you're matched with sees your sign-in name during the call. Your knowledge log (what you wrote down) is private to you. Aggregate stats (how many sessions, average rating) are public. Read the full privacy policy.
Is it free?
Yes, while we're in beta. No credit card, no upsell.
What if my peer is rude or unsafe?
Hit Report on the rating screen. Reports go to mods; the "Unsafe" category triggers an immediate 24-hour match-ban for the reported user. We take this seriously.
Can I block someone?
Yes — they won't be matched with you again. (Block list in your profile.)
How does matching work?
You pick 1–3 topics; the queue prefers pairs that share at least one. After 30 seconds of waiting it falls back to any available peer. Reputation (from past ratings) breaks ties.
Can I use this for hiring or referrals?
Not the goal, but it happens organically. There's a "Would refer this person" checkbox on the rating screen — your reputation score includes how often people would refer you.
