Our story

The most meaningful experiences aren’t just about where we go—they’re about who we share them with. But as the world becomes more digital and AI takes hold, real-life connection is fading. We pass by familiar faces, visit the same spaces, yet often remain strangers to the people around us.



 

Umee was created to change that.


 


It started with a group of volunteers—designers, engineers, researchers, and academics from around the world—who saw a problem few were solving. Technology was making everything more efficient, but it wasn’t making life feel more connected. We believed there was a better way.



 

Balancing full-time jobs and studies, we spent nights and weekends building Umee—a way to make shared spaces feel more personal and more like places you want to return to. Umee isn’t just another platform. It’s an invitation—to engage more, connect naturally, and turn routine visits into something more meaningful.



 

We’re just getting started, and we’re looking for people who believe in what we’re building. If that’s you, we’d love to have you on the team.
