Dating solutions we build
Discovery, matching, and conversation, engineered as one product.
Matching & discovery engines
Swipe decks, filters, and recommendation models that learn from behavior. Matching quality is the retention lever in dating, so the model gets its own evaluation loop, not just a distance sort.
- ✓Swipe & Double-Opt-In Matching
- ✓Compatibility Scoring Models
- ✓Location & Preference Filters
- ✓Daily Profile Batches
- ✓Boost & Spotlight Mechanics
Profiles & verification
Photo verification, profile prompts, and anti-catfishing checks. Verified badges lift match rates, and they lift them for the honest users you actually want on the platform.
- ✓Photo & Liveness Verification
- ✓Profile Prompts & Interests
- ✓Verified Badge System
- ✓Instagram-Style Media Grids
- ✓Fake Profile Detection
Chat & icebreakers
Match-gated messaging with voice notes, GIFs, and AI-suggested openers. Conversation starters measurably lift first-message rates, which is where most matches quietly die.
- ✓Match-Gated Messaging
- ✓Voice Notes & Media Sharing
- ✓AI Icebreaker Suggestions
- ✓Read Receipts & Typing States
- ✓Unmatch & Block Flows
Safety & moderation
Photo review, report handling, ban workflows, and emergency resources. Safety tooling ships in the core build, because app store policies and user trust both demand it.
- ✓Photo & Content Review Queues
- ✓Reporting & Ban Workflows
- ✓Harassment Detection Models
- ✓Safety Center & Resources
- ✓Rate Limiting & Spam Controls
Monetization modules
Subscriptions, boosts, super-likes, and see-who-liked-you paywalls. Every lever is admin-configurable, so you can test pricing per market without shipping a new build.
- ✓Subscription Tiers & Trials
- ✓Boosts & Spotlights
- ✓Super-Likes & Rewinds
- ✓Who-Liked-You Paywalls
- ✓Promo & Referral Codes
Events & video dating
Group events, video calls, and virtual date formats that deepen engagement. Video-first features differentiate a crowded category without another ad budget.
- ✓In-App Video Calls
- ✓Virtual Date Formats
- ✓Group Events & Mixers
- ✓Speed-Swipe Live Modes
- ✓Post-Date Feedback Prompts
A complete dating stack across every surface
Members, moderators, and your growth team, each with purpose-built tools.
Member app
The experience that decides whether someone opens the app on a Tuesday night. Fast onboarding, an honest deck, and conversations that start easily, engineered with the same care as the matching model.
- ✓Onboarding & Profile Builder
- ✓Swipe Deck & Discovery Filters
- ✓Match Chat With Media
- ✓Photo Verification Flows
- ✓Safety Center & Blocking
- ✓Subscription & Boost Storefront
Moderation console
Where trust is enforced. Photo review, reports, bans, and appeals live in one queue with audit trails, because a dating app's reputation is only as good as its worst user experience.
- ✓Photo & Content Review Queues
- ✓Report Triage & Case Files
- ✓Ban & Appeal Workflows
- ✓Fake Profile Detection Alerts
- ✓Policy Configuration
- ✓Moderator Performance Metrics
Growth & admin console
Run the business side. Pricing, campaigns, matching model tuning, and cohort analytics operate from one console, because monetization in dating is an operating loop, not a setting.
- ✓Pricing & Paywall Configuration
- ✓Cohort & Retention Analytics
- ✓Matching Model Dashboards
- ✓Lifecycle Campaign Builder
- ✓Push Notification Rules
- ✓Market & Geo Configuration
revenue model
How your dating app earns
Admin-configurable revenue levers include subscription tiers and trial lengths, a la carte purchases like boosts and super-likes, see-who-liked-you paywalls, featured placement, and promo or referral credits. Each lever is metered inside the platform, so per-market pricing tests run without engineering involvement.
Retention economics decide lifetime value in dating, so the same console reports cohort retention, match rates, and conversation rates by segment. Matching quality improvements usually pay back faster than ad spend, and we report both against the baseline you set in discovery.
