THE MODEL

How Circl fits together

How the building blocks in Circl relate to each other, and why the product is built the way it is.

The building blocks

Circl has a few clear parts. Once you see how they fit, the rest of the app reads naturally.

What the parts are

  • Profile and Social Profile — who you are and how you like to be around others.
  • Contacts — people you have a direct relationship with.
  • Openings — when you're looking for someone to do something with.
  • Memories — when you show something you're planning, doing or have done.
  • Circles — settings where people keep meeting.

How they fit together

Your profile gives Circl a base. Openings and Memories create motion in your life. Contacts and Circles hold things together over time.

Why exactly these

They're the smallest set needed for Circl to be about people and activities — not about producing content.
