tomo[toh-moh] noun • a vetted companion for events, dining, & travel.

Dining

Hire someone to go to dinner with.

Eating alone in a good restaurant is a small, specific kind of lonely. Tomo lets you book a vetted local companion for the meal, by the hour, strictly platonic and background checked.

The reservation you did not want to cancel

A table you booked months ago. A tasting menu that makes no sense for one. A client dinner where you would rather not arrive alone. A first night in a city where room service feels like giving up.

Tomo covers all of it: you book the hours the dinner runs, your companion meets you at the restaurant, and the evening ends when the meal does.

Good conversation is a skill worth paying for

The companions who do well on Tomo are the ones people describe as easy to talk to. They ask real questions, they know the city, and they can carry an evening without making it about themselves.

Every companion completes a video intake interview before their first booking, which is where that shows up.

Clear boundaries, clearly stated

Tomo is company, not romance. There is no ambiguity about what a dinner booking is, which is exactly why it works for business meals and solo travel alike.

Dinners take place in verified public venues, both sides are identity verified, and every booking is insured.

What you get with Tomo

Hourly bookings

Book the length of the meal. Extend on the night if the evening runs long.

Restaurant-literate locals

Companions who know the room, the menu and where to go afterwards.

Public venues only

Restaurants, hotel dining rooms and bars. Never private residences.

Free cancellation

Cancel free up to 24 hours ahead, with support you can actually reach.
