More than a tap. A relationship platform.
Popl taps to share a profile. Mētan turns that tap into a relationship: compatibility insights, context on everyone you meet, and a scheduler that books the next conversation. No hardware required.

Beyond the tap
The tap is the easy part. The relationship is not.
Mētan is built around what happens after the tap, where deals and friendships are won:
- Compatibility insights on every connection
- Confirmed meetings in two taps
- Follow-ups surface on their own
The follow-up, handled
No hardware, no lock-in

A map, not a list
FAQ
Questions, answered.
The short version of what we hear most. For everything else, the contact form reaches a human.
Do I need to buy an NFC product to use Mētan?
No. Mētan works with the phone you already have: share by QR code, NFC tap, or smart link. There is no accessory to buy and no subscription for the card itself.
Does the other person need the app?
No. Your card opens as a web profile in any browser, and they can save your details straight to their phone.
What does Mētan do that Popl does not?
After the exchange, Mētan analyzes how well you and the other person match, surfaces synergies you would not uncover in a first conversation, remembers where and why you met, and books the next meeting. Popl is built for sales lead capture and the hardware that powers it.
