Pace Club

What is Pace Club? Pace Club is a privacy-first, women-focused social running platform that helps you turn "we should run sometime" into real-life, verified meetups — with rewards. It’s like Bumble BFF meets Strava, backed by web3 primitives to unlock trust, safety, and verified vibes.

1. Wallet Login + Gender Verification Users sign in using Privy, which creates a secure, embedded smart wallet under the hood. They verify gender only (not full identity) via Self.ID, a zero-knowledge identity protocol — protecting privacy while ensuring safety in social settings.
2. Connect Strava The user links their Strava account, so we can track their runs (for verification) and pull relevant fitness data like pace, recent activity, etc.
3. Input Your Vibe & Pace We ask a few simple questions — think: Preferred run pace Social vibe (e.g. chatty, chill, competitive) Location & availability Comfort level (e.g. beginner, training for race)
4. Smart Matching Using Flow.com’s AI, we analyze the user’s answers and Strava history to recommend the top 3 running buddies that best match their pace, vibe, and goals.
5. Message & Meetup If both parties opt in, they can message each other in-app to plan a run.
6. Verify the Meetup + Earn Points Once the run happens, we use a Strava geo-tag match (timestamp + location) to confirm it was real. This earns the user Pace Points, our social reward currency that could be used for swag, merch, or unlocking other features down the line.
