How it all took flight

In a world that’s more connected than ever, many of us still feel strangely alone. We scroll, swipe and message all day, yet it is a lot harder to find connections that feels real.

Crane was created to change all of that.

We started as a platform for community building, spaces where people could share ideas and gather others around what they love but over time (especially after the pandemic), we saw that most people needed places and experiences that make connecting feel natural again.

So, Crane evolved.

We exist to counter this disconnection and to create a welcoming environment with experiences that individuals can meet relevant people. Groups can gather, bond, simply enjoy being together again.

Whether you’re looking for love, friendship, a business partner or just something real, Crane is where that journey can begin because no matter how much we spend time online, the magic still happens in real life.

What people are saying


Finally, a place where I don’t have to overthink. Just showed up with my friends, and everyone had something to enjoy. Even the shy ones!

I went alone to one of their dinners and left with three new friends with zero awkward moments. It felt like hanging out with people I hadn’t met yet, not strangers.

Crane’s retreat gave me the reset I didn’t know I needed. I was not forced to network and not forced to have fun, just be myself, enjoy the moment and let it all go~
