Get a Simple Mission Today.
We know the feeling of wanting to connect but freezing up. That's why I built ShakoUp, to turn scary social moments into small, manageable missions. Let's build confidence together.
Currently open for iOS.
Tired of replaying awkward conversations in your head?
You walk into a room and check your phone just to look busy.
Your mind goes blank when someone says 'Hi'.
want to make friends, but you're afraid of bothering people.
You don't need a personality transplant.
Just need to try one thing different at a time.
Downgrade Your Social Anxiety.
Practice "Open Body Language" or "The Ben Franklin Effect" without anyone knowing. To them, you're just chatting. To you, you're earning XP.
We Need Practice. Not Just Theory.
We've all read the books on confidence, but we still freeze in the moment. That's why these missions focus on action, not just advice.
The Ben Franklin Effect
Ask for small favors to subconsciously build trust.
The Peak-End Rule
Craft memorable exits so you are remembered fondly.
Dopamine Loops
Questions that trigger positive memory recall in others.
Thin-Slicing
Micro-adjustments to your "default face" that change first impressions.
A Playbook, Not a Script.
Don't just memorize lines. Know the mechanics behind connection.
Lock the Skill into Memory
Writing down your mission moves it from short-term memory to long-term habit. Even if it went badly, you get scores just for trying.
Your Safe Space.
Your entries are private. Your data is never sold. We use AI to help you, not to train public models on your personal stories.
Wait, but what if...
It works for dates, but also for networking, making friends, or just chatting with the barista. It's about human connection.
No. The missions are 'stealth.' Most people won't even know you're practicing something.
The attempt itself is worth celebrating. ShakoUp rewards courage, not just successful outcomes.
