Our Mission
To make Jewish life more accessible, more connected, and more joyful — by putting everything you need in one place and building a community that welcomes everyone to the table.
We believe that when you make it easy to find a kosher restaurant, join a Shabbat dinner, or discover a community event — you're not just building an app. You're strengthening the fabric of Jewish life itself.
Our Story
How It Started
It started with a simple problem: you move to a new city and want to find a kosher restaurant. You Google it. You get outdated Yelp listings, closed spots, and no way to know if the certification is current. You ask in a WhatsApp group. Someone sends you a PDF from 2019.
We thought — there has to be a better way. A single place where you can find every kosher spot, verified and up-to-date. Where you can see what events are happening this week. Where you can plan your simcha without calling 30 vendors. Where daily Jewish life feels connected, not scattered.
So we built Kosher Connect. Not as a directory — as a community hub. A place where the map shows you what's nearby, the calendar shows you what's coming, and the people around you become your people.
We're starting in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and Chicago — four cities with vibrant Jewish communities and world-class kosher food scenes. But this is just the beginning. Every city with a Jewish community deserves a Kosher Connect.
What We Stand For
Our Values
Community First
Everything we build starts with one question: does this bring people together? Technology is the tool, connection is the goal.
Trust & Transparency
We verify every listing, cite every source, and never compromise on accuracy. When you see it on Kosher Connect, you can trust it.
Inclusive by Design
Whether you're Ashkenazi, Sephardi, Mizrachi, observant, exploring, or somewhere in between — this app is for you. No gatekeeping.
Joy in the Everyday
Jewish life isn't just holidays and milestones. It's the daily nudge, the neighborhood bakery, the spontaneous Shabbat invite. We celebrate all of it.
Built Together
Our listings come from the community. Our moderators are volunteers. Our roadmap is shaped by your feedback. This is your app.
Hyper-Local
National coverage, neighborhood feel. We go deep in every city — not just the big spots, but the hidden gems only locals know.
