About Noavo

Sport is more fun with the right people.

Noavo is a mobile app that connects people who want to be active together — whether that's a tennis match, a running partner, or a group session at a local gym.

The problem

Finding a sports partner is harder than it should be.

You either rely on the same small circle of friends, or spend time posting in group chats hoping someone is free. Courts sit empty. Training sessions get skipped. Motivation drops.

The people you'd love to be active with are nearby — you just have no way to find them.

What we built

A platform built around one goal: getting you active.

01

Browse nearby partners

See who's active near you, filtered by sport and skill level. Send a connection request with one tap.

02

Propose an activity

Once connected, send a structured proposal — sport, date, time, location. No back-and-forth messaging needed.

03

Join activities

Browse upcoming sessions near you and join with one tap. Filter by sport, skill level, and date to find the right fit.

04

Build a track record

After every activity, both players rate each other. Reliable partners stand out. The community self-moderates.

45+ sports

Every sport has its own skill scale.

Tennis uses NTRP ratings. Running uses pace per kilometre. Brazilian jiu-jitsu uses belt rank. Golf uses handicap. We support 45+ sports, each with a rating system that actually means something for that sport — so you find partners at your real level, not a generic "intermediate".

Tennis
NTRP 1.0–7.0
Running
4:00–8:00 /km
BJJ
White → Black belt
Golf
Handicap 0–54
Swimming

Climbing
YDS 5.5–5.15
Our principles

What we stand for

01

All skill levels welcome

Noavo is for beginners picking up a racquet for the first time and for competitive athletes training seriously. There is no minimum.

02

Built around accountability

Users can verify their profile with a selfie to earn a verified badge. After every activity, both sides rate each other — anonymously. Ratings are real signals, not vanity metrics.

03

Find someone, show up

Noavo is purpose-built for getting active — not for scrolling. Every feature exists to reduce the gap between "I want to play" and actually playing.
