# BedMate

> BedMate (bedmate.ink) is a free, privacy-first, anonymous, location-based social and dating web app for adults (18+). It shows you people nearby, lets you see their MBTI and Enneagram personality types, and lets you exchange anonymous "message bottles". Available in English, 中文, 日本語 and 한국어.

## Key facts
