Coffee & Lunch Roulette

The classic of employee networking: employees from different departments are automatically matched for informal conversations – over coffee, lunch, or virtually.

1

Sign Up & Create Profile

Employees register with their company email or via SSO, select location, department, and team – and decide which formats they'd like to participate in (e.g., lunch or virtual coffee break).

2

Choose Time Slots

The system regularly sends appointment suggestions via calendar invitation – users just need to confirm. Those who prefer to plan themselves select time slots directly from the calendar in their user profile. Both approaches work seamlessly together.

3

Automatic Matching

Matching only happens after confirmation – only people who have time meet someone who is also available. No coordination effort, no missed appointments. The system sends out calendar blocks and establishes the connection.

4

Network at Your Own Pace

No fixed rhythm, no deadline – networking runs continuously at each user's individual pace. This way, the system adapts optimally to work life.
