We know what it feels like to arrive in a new place excited, curious, and totally alone. COPEO was born from that exact moment. What started as a simple idea between friends became a mission: help others feel less lost and more connected, one plan at a time.
COPEO started with Yelco, a born connector and lifelong entrepreneur. Fascinated by how apps brought people together, he imagined a tool that could turn strangers into stories. What seemed impossible 20 years ago was finally becoming real.

After years of research and endless ideas, Yelco met Fabi. Together, they started shaping an app that could truly make socializing easier and more natural. At first, it was all about matching friend groups… until real life shifted everything.
When Yelco moved to Australia and met Jose, it clicked: being a backpacker is all about connecting. What they were living, new places, no crew, and craving connection—was the spark COPEO needed. That’s when the project found its true purpose.
