By invitation · Twenty pilot seats · Opening soon
Sortie. Now.
Made for anyone who arrives without a plan.
Not a list of places. A list of evenings.
By signing up you agree to our Privacy Policy.
The first twenty on the list receive a personal invitation link to the pilot. · One email. No spam.
✦ Almost there — check your inbox and confirm your email to secure your spot.
It's 8 PM. Your meetings are done.
The minibar is stocked. The TV is on.
You know nobody in this city.
You don't know where to go.
So you stay.
Companies book the flight. They book the hotel.
Nobody takes care of the evening.

Instant Access
Explore instantly as a guest. No sign-up, no profile, no friction. Open the app and discover the best local spots around your hotel tonight — from hidden Irish pubs to late-night jazz bars. Pure discovery, zero commitment.
Read the Room
See who shares the mood. Live counters show you what's happening at open tables nearby — a craft beer tasting, a shisha lounge, a live music session. Sortie also shows what's on tonight: karaoke, live band, specials — not just the venue, but the evening. You know what awaits before you even leave your room.
Pull up a Chair
Skip the small talk. Verified travelers only — no business pitches, no networking pressure. Secure your seat at an open table and just show up. Good company, same vibe, no agenda.
"You can't lose. Even if nobody shows up, you're still out — somewhere good."
The Sortie principle
Business Travelers
One night. No local network. A long day behind you. Sortie was built for exactly this moment.
Airline & Train Crews
You land at 20:00, fly out at noon. That evening is yours — Sortie makes it worth leaving the hotel.
Consultants on Assignment
Monday to Friday, same city for weeks. Sortie is the social layer your project assignment was missing.
Conference & Trade Fair
Thousands of people in one city, all with the same free evening. Sortie turns that into something.
Locals & Transients
It's Tuesday. You want to go out but you don't know where. Sortie shows what's actually happening tonight — not what opened six months ago.
Sport & Activity
Looking for a squash partner, a padel match, a running buddy. Sortie connects you with someone who wants the same thing — tonight, nearby, no commitment.
Wellness Travelers
A long week. A free evening. Sortie shows what's available tonight — facial, massage, sauna. No research required.
No background tracking
Your location is only read when you open the app. The moment you close it, it's gone. No movement profiles, ever.
Anonymous until you choose
As a guest you're completely invisible. As a verified user, you're only visible to people at your table — nobody else.
Tonight only.
Your presence is visible for one evening only. No history, no trail, no record.
One tap to disappear
Changed your mind? One tap and you're invisible again — no questions, no confirmation screens, no trace.
