The hours after work — 5 to 9

Less time on screens.
More time doing things with people you like.

5to9 turns a blank evening into a decided one. Open it for five minutes, sort the night, put your phone down.

Email only. No selling it on, no newsletter you didn’t ask for. Leave any time — one click and you’re out. Privacy

Pre-launch in Amsterdam. Nothing to download — yet.
How a 5-to-9 goes
01

See your free window

Connect your calendar — read-only, busy blocks only — and 5to9 shows the 5-to-9 hours that are actually yours tonight.

02

Get three picks

A small, finite set of things to do nearby — curated by Amsterdam accounts you already trust. Three, then it ends. No feed.

03

Go — and close it

Tap one to put it on your evening. Bring people you know if you want. Then shut the app and go live the night.

Built to be closed.

Pick the plan, lock who’s in, get on with your evening. The app does its job and gets out of the way.

No feed to scroll.

Nothing ranked, nothing infinite, no notifications nagging you back. There is simply nothing here to doomscroll.

The win is the dinner that happened.

Success isn’t minutes in an app. It’s the bouldering session, the table for four, the evening off your phone.

What this is not

If we’ve done our job, you’re not looking at your phone.

Not another app fighting for your evenings.
Not a feed to scroll.
Not a place to swipe for strangers.
Not streaks, badges, or notifications pulling you back.

Get your evenings back.
