About Lagoon

Built because campus life should not feel this fragmented.

Lagoon started with a simple frustration: UCSB students were switching between separate systems for schedules, dining, events, campus news, and planning, even though those tools all shape the same day. The company exists to make that experience simpler, calmer, and more useful.

Mission

Make student life feel more connected

The goal is not to add another campus app. It is to replace the scattered experience students already have.

Starting point

Build it for UCSB first

Lagoon starts with UCSB so the product can feel local, specific, and genuinely useful to Gauchos.

Product

Design around the normal week

The app is built around what students do repeatedly: class checks, dining decisions, event browsing, and planning.
