How it works
uSayHi is a hat that quietly signals you're single and open to meeting people in real life — a small embroidered "hi." on the front and a woven QR patch on the side that opens your profile when someone scans it.
No swiping. No matching. Just a clearer way to say I'm open to a hello without saying a word. For everyone — single or not, just here for the bit or genuinely looking. Wear it to brunch, to the game, to opening day.
Put on the hat when you're open to being said hi to. Take it off when you're not. It's a signal — fully in your hands.
Someone next to you in line scans the QR patch on the side. Your uSayHi profile opens. (They have to be signed in — no anonymous lookups, ever.)
They either message you in the app or just walk over and say it in person. Real life, with a much friendlier opening line.
The lineup
Two founding silhouettes, both in clean black + cream rope, both with the subtle hi. up front and the small side QR patch. Reserve the one you'd actually wear — demand picks the winners. More styles (corduroy, suede) may follow for fall.

This works like Kickstarter: we only make the hats if enough people reserve. Your $10 holds your spot and counts toward the $39.99 price — it isn't an extra fee on top. You're not charged the rest unless we hit 1,000 reservations. Don't get there? Every deposit is refunded in full, automatically.

For the ladies
A hat broadcasts to everyone behind you, and not every woman wants that. If there were a subtler, fully-in-your-control way to show you're open to a hello — and one you could put away the instant you don't want it on — what would you actually wear? On when you want to be seen, gone when you don't.
