Could you build this?

No A real-world spontaneous social networking app relies heavily on real-time location streaming, anti-abuse/safety infrastructure, and high two-sided local network effects to function.

What it would actually take: A functional platform requires a React Native or Swift mobile app with high-efficiency geofencing and background location updates (CoreLocation/FusedLocationProvider), a real-time presence backend (Elixir/Phoenix or Go with Redis geospatial indexing), trust/safety moderation pipelines, and substantial local user acquisition budgets to solve the cold-start problem.
