I'm a data scientist who is building Slipper, an iOS app that uses algorithms to reconnect and recommend missed connections. In beta now, but ~5% of new users are matched on sign-up with a real post written about them. Launching later this month, perhaps early October.

Feedback most definitely welcome!

I am finding it a bit difficult to properly understand what this app does.

So it uncovers lost connections between the user and other people, where do the stories come into this?
