“My match and I instantly discovered so many things we have in common. We initially made contact in January 2024 and now check in with each other at least once a month. It feels so good to have a new work friend.”
“My Rivet experience has been great. I was craving a new friend at work and Rivet delivered. My match and I really enjoy each other’s company, it has made work a lot more enjoyable.”

Step #3 Connection
After matching, we provide expert connection guidance to drive the best results — and make sure everything runs smoothly, driving the results you want.
More than networking — it’s science-based connection.
Most networking is daunting, forgettable, surface-level, and cringe-worthy. With Rivet, we use scientifically-proven matching to connect people to increase the likelihood of strong bonds.
The magic behind our matches.
Rivet analyzes a combination of psychometric personality traits, life stage, interests, location, and hobbies to gather relevant data. Once the data is gathered, Rivet thoughtfully connects people using HEXACO science and machine learning intelligence.
We help people feel more connected.
Isolation, loneliness, and social dissatisfaction have been on the rise for years — leading to unproductive teams, unhealthy humans, and a fractured society.
Rivet makes better connection possible.
