The Platform That Turns Film Taste Into Friendship

[overview]

Filmelia is a Swiss platform that matches film lovers once a month, pairing people by city, taste, and favourite directors to spark real-life connections. Built for expats and newcomers, its mission is simple: make it easier to find your people in a new country, starting with a shared love for cinema. Every match creates a group of three, designed to turn strangers into friends.

PEAKYAPPS joined as operational partners, taking full ownership of the project, from building the platform to shaping the communication strategy and leading its Swiss market launch. The core technical challenge was the matching algorithm: unlike traditional social apps that pair two people, Filmelia's logic assembles groups of three based on shared film preferences, location, and taste profiles. That required a fundamentally different approach, one that balances compatibility across three people simultaneously while keeping the experience feeling natural and serendipitous. The algorithm and the full web platform were designed and built from the ground up.
