About Twos
A father, a son, and a question: what if conversation could feel good again?
Twos is built on a simple idea: one good conversation can improve your day.
It's not therapy, not dating, and not content. It's a place for thoughtful conversations with kind people, at the exact moment you want human connection.
Every call is a private, one-on-one conversation of up to 15 minutes, designed to leave you feeling lighter, calmer, or more understood.
How Twos started
Cut from the same cloth, raised in different worlds, one in hard corporate work and tradition, the other in fast-moving tech and a culture finally talking openly about meaning and inner life. Like a lot of fathers and sons, that distance made real connection harder than it should have been.
Then, through a stretch of hardship and a quiet need to actually talk, they started. Daily, honest conversations, sometimes heavy, sometimes light. Father and son became friends and they learned that an honest conversation always makes a day better. Sometimes it is even easier with someone new.
When did talking to another human, really talking, become so rare?
That's the idea Twos is built on. A conversation app, not a social network. No follows. No feed. No DMs. Just one real person, thoughtfully matched, anywhere in the world. It started with a father and a son. It's built for everyone.
Father & son, Co-founders
Elio & Riccardo Leoni Sceti
Elio
Italian at heart, from Rome. A career spent building consumer brands. Father of four. Believes good food and thoughtful conversation are the same thing. Both take time, both leave you better than they found you.
Elio's LinkedIn →Riccardo
The son in the story. Drawn to the kind of conversation that pulls something honest out of you, the kind that only happens when the person on the other end is actually listening, not waiting to reply.

Chief Scientist
Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky
The science partner
We didn't want to build a product on instinct alone. So we partnered with Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky, Distinguished Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Riverside, and author of The How of Happiness, as our Chief Scientist.
Her 35+ years of positive-psychology research underwrites every design choice in Twos: the time-boxed call, the post-call mood reflection, the matching mechanism, the absence of a feed.
Said more simply, every part of Twos is built for the best possible conversation, and the connection that comes from it.
What Twos is not
Twos is a conversation app, not a social network and not a content platform.
Not therapy.
Twos is for everyday human conversation. If you're in crisis, please reach out to a trusted professional or local emergency services.
Not dating.
There's no swiping, no matching for romance, and no DMs between calls. People come to Twos for one good conversation.
Not content.
There is no feed and no audience. Conversations happen live, between two people, and disappear when the call ends.
