Dating and meeting new people is frightening enough, but a Houston-based dating app offers unique features like vetting profiles through matchmaking, as well as prioritizing safety and authenticity.
– For my friends in the dating pool: my heart goes out to you. It’s scary out there and a recent survey said Texas was one of the most dangerous states for online dating .
In other words, if my friend lived in Houston then I could vet profiles for them or any of my friends who have the app and even recommend profiles for my friend to talk to and which ones to avoid.“You can’t interact with any of the dating people and the people that are dating in the dating pool,” Edwards explained. “Only you and your friend know you’re on there as well. So it’s completely anonymous.
Before this survey came out, Edwards said the team was already working on implementing additional safety features to tackle the issues making online dating so dangerous. He could not go into exact detail as the programs were still being worked on but hopes they will be ready within the next year. “Because we don’t want to necessarily eliminate all profiles because it’s an algorithm. It’s not going to be perfect, but we want to make sure that we’re building a pattern and continually optimizing these patterns to make sure that we’re getting it.,” he said. “We don’t want to eliminate people who aren’t actually bots and maybe just aren’t that great at communicating. So we’re we’re watching that, retaining optimizing our app for that.
