Circles is a new social app designed to strengthen real friendships. The app allows you to create a “circle” of up to 20 friends, where you answer a daily prompt together, discovering more about each other with each response.
Founder Jonah is leveraging the "founder-led" growth model, connecting directly with users to build community and trust.
His recent cinematic app promo, "Your Group Chat Is Dead," has been gaining traction, with 240K views and a growing comment section full of new activity.
Though the app launched in December 2025 and only had a semi-popular video, Circles has already broken into the top 100 for Social Networking in the U.K. and the Netherlands, signaling its strong early appeal.
