Software995 Inc. announced a major expansion of ThinkMatch event search, bringing together more ways to discover real-world gatherings and use AI-assisted introductions to make attending them feel easier, warmer, and more intentional.
ThinkMatch now supports search across major events and places worldwide, helping people begin with something they already want to attend and then find compatible people, groups, or tables before walking into the room.
Campus discovery now covers more than 200 colleges and universities, including MIT, Stanford University, and the University of Southern California. Campus pages make it easier to browse school events and create a ThinkMatch experience around academic, cultural, athletic, and community activities.
Public-calendar support opens another path for discovering conventions, conferences, associations, civic programs, libraries, museums, and other organizations that publish event schedules. ThinkMatch can turn supported calendar listings into starting points for real-world connection instead of leaving people to navigate a long schedule alone.
The expanded search experience also supports public Meetup event links and general event webpages. A person can paste a supported public event URL, import the available details, and create a free, shareable ThinkMatch event that adds questions, matching, conversation starters, private chat, and optional video around the original gathering. ThinkMatch is not affiliated with or endorsed by Meetup.
People attending ThinkMatch events can also enable a private calendar feed from their profile. The feed lets accepted and upcoming ThinkMatch events appear in a compatible personal calendar and remain synchronized as event details change.
Together, the new search options extend ThinkMatch from a single event tool into a broader discovery and connection layer. Whether someone starts with a major live event, a campus, an organization calendar, a Meetup listing, or another event page, the goal is the same: help people arrive with better context and a more natural reason to begin talking.
ThinkMatch was built with one goal in mind: to use AI to transform real-world social interaction and make loneliness and the awkwardness of meeting new people obsolete. It helps people find the right person, group, or table before they walk into the room so meeting can feel more human from the start.
"Finding an event is only the first step," said Scott Rothstein, Architect at Software995 Inc. "ThinkMatch is built to change how people meet by helping them discover where they want to go and who they may want to meet before they arrive. These new search options make that path available across major events, campuses, public calendars, Meetup listings, and events throughout the world."
