"MEET INSPIRING PEOPLE, SHAPE YOUR LIFE! Swipe for 1 minute each day and make the connections you didn't expect."
Shapr is a mobile-first business networking tool based on the swipe left-to-ignore, swipe right-to-register-your-interest format used by Tinder.
It is a nicely made app and you can see the value but, to me, it felt like it required a pretty high level of engagement, which made me a little uneasy. Do I now have to meet this dude for lunch and talk business?!
I have used a similar product that they made for Cannes Lion last year (everyone ignored me then as well) so I don't think it is going away as a idea even if Shapr isn't necessarily the one.
