01 · Why
The people you need are one or two hops away. Nobody can see them.
Most opportunities come through acquaintances, not close friends, and those are the ties we forget first. In a community of a few thousand people, almost everyone is invisible to everyone else.
Who has a spare room, who is hiring, who knows a good lawyer? That knowledge is scattered across group chats nobody can search.
Topels is a mutual-aid network with a mind.
| Product | Core unit | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Social feeds | Friendship | Shows you content; wins the longer you stay. |
| Profile | Waits for you to search and apply. | |
| AI assistants | One-on-one chat | Helps one person; knows no one else in the network. |
| Topels | Needs × offers × time | Connects the right people, often before anyone asks. |
02 · An intro
From one sentence to the right person, in four steps.
A typical story: Elif needs a car, and Mert is selling his next month. Neither knows the other exists.
- Step 1/4
Elif
I need a used car in the next three weeks. Budget $12k max.
Yuva
Got it, I'll keep an eye out.03 · The Topels
