Origin Story
Loneliness can strike at any time, especially when we move to new places. Thyagi DeLanerolle, CEO of OOt, understands this firsthand. When she moved to downtown Toronto, she faced a loneliness crisis in both her personal and professional life.
That’s when she teamed up with Paul Gries, a professor from the University of Toronto, to create a research-driven app that would help people connect with like-minded individuals based on proximity, interests and intentions.
