Outernet bridges the gap between wanting to do something and actually going outside and doing it. Whether that's a weekend adventure with family, an after-work sidequest, a fun date, or a vacation filled with exploration.
People increasingly want to spend more time IRL, but they struggle with the addictiveness of social media. 83% of Gen-Z social media users have taken steps to limit their social media usage, but 60% still spend at least four hours a day on them (2024, Harris Poll). Outernet meets people where they are, turning their aspirational desires to spend more time IRL into action.
