Our Mission
At FRNDS, we believe that technology should bring people closer together. We're creating a platform where friends can connect authentically, play together, and build lasting relationships.
Why Google Cloud Platform
We're applying to the Google for Startups Cloud Program because we need reliable, scalable infrastructure to support our growing user base. Our application requires:
- Scalable Database: Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL to handle user data, messages, and game state
- Containerized Backend: Cloud Run for our Fastify API server with auto-scaling capabilities
- Real-time Infrastructure: WebSocket support for live gaming and messaging
- Storage Solutions: Cloud Storage for user avatars, images, and media files
- Global Reach: CDN and edge computing for low-latency experiences worldwide
With Google Cloud Platform, we can focus on building great features for our users while relying on enterprise-grade infrastructure that scales with our growth.
Current Status
FRNDS is currently in active development with core features implemented and tested. We have a working mobile application (iOS and Android) with:
- User authentication and profiles
- Encrypted messaging system
- Kikit card game with multiplayer support
- Social feed and friend connections
- Radio integration
- Loyalty and points system
We're preparing for beta testing and are building the infrastructure needed to support our launch and scale to thousands of users.
