Somewhere, someone else is telling an AI the same thing you are.

A diagnosis, a new company, a move, a thesis, a hard year. Whatever it is, overlap quietly looks for the one other person in it too, and introduces the two of you only when you both want it.

Free to join. Nothing is shared until you both say yes.

Someone in your situation

Based on your words, not keywords

“Six months into treatment and I mostly wanted to hear from someone who'd already been through the same thing.”

Both say yes

Only then does a private conversation open, with a friendly opener.

Private by default

Passing is always fine. Nobody is told you declined.

You're one of many

Thousands of people are quietly going through something similar right now. Give it a gentle spin. Somewhere in there is someone who'd understand your day without you having to explain it.

How it works

Tell us, in your own words

A few sentences about what you're going through and who you'd like to talk to. You see the exact words before anything is saved.

We look for the same thing

Your words are matched by meaning to other people describing the same thing, not by keywords, and never publicly.

You both choose to connect

If someone overlaps, you each get to say yes or not now. A private conversation opens only when both of you agree.

Use overlap from the assistant you already have

overlap runs as an MCP server. Connect it once and you can share what you're going through, and check whether anyone overlaps, without leaving the chat you already use.

Your privacy comes first

This can be a sensitive thing to share. Everything here is built so you stay in control of what other people can see.

You always see the exact words before they're saved.
No names, workplaces or contact details in what others see.
A private conversation opens only after you both say yes.
You can step out of the pool whenever you want.

Ready when you are.

Join, share as much or as little as you like, and we'll let you know the moment someone overlaps with you.
