If you were to design a matchmaking platform from scratch today, what would it look like?
How would you handle:
- Trust, authenticity, and privacy in an age of AI and deepfakes? - Cultural and regional diversity without stereotyping? - Real compatibility beyond surface-level traits? - Balancing data-driven matching with human intuition? - Building something that encourages long-term relationships, not just short-term engagement?
Curious to hear from people who think about product design, social systems, ethics, and human connection.

- high cost
- human verification, background check, personality assessment
- mandate profile “about me” video
- “things that interest me” section on profile. Could be funny videos, memes, books, shows.
- have in-person mingling events
- monthly 1:1 coaching
Would launch in one city first, heavily advertise, be selective on who to let in and only launch once there’s enough people to open it up.
Only have a certain amount of people in at once, let in new people as existing couples leave. People that are too selective get kicked out.
