Startup Roundup 21st June
This Startup Roundup is presented in partnership with The Social Discovery Group, who are currently eager to connect with startups in the social discovery and online dating space.
Heyoosh – The ‘world’s first’ AI-based personal matchmaker: Heyoosh bills itself as the latest Tinder rival. The Israeli dating app has a heavy privacy and security focus, with users connecting directly to the app via their Apple ID (the app is currently only available on iOS) and no image sharing permitted via messaging. Over time the matchmaking app’s AI-based system will learn users’ preferences to match them with better potential partners.
FET – Unleash your wildest desires: Proudly proclaiming itself ‘the ultimate dating platform for kinksters’, FET is a safe and consensual home for the kink-curious and BDSM community, priding itself on being ‘unapologetically open’. Features include 24/7 live chat, newsfeed and free image sharing.
EZMatch – Easy to pair, easy to chat, easy to meet: Available on Android and iOS, and developed in Vietnam, EZMatch promises to ‘help you find half of your life after only 30 days’.
In Case You Missed It! Here’s last week’s Startup Roundup:
JOJO – Love knows no age dating for over 50s: JOJO describes itself as the dating app dedicated to seniors ‘who believe life’s second act is just as exciting when it comes to romance and companionship’. Targeting mature daters over 50, the app combines traditional online dating with in-person group events such as cooking classes and local walks.
FITFCK- Turning gym-goers into training partners: Fitness is trending hard and FITFCK is making finding a partner for both the gym and the bedroom easier by pairing fitness enthusiasts and professionals based on gender, fitness levels and interests. Profiles feature vital statistics, workout preferences, fitness routines and favourite foods and in-person fitness events bring users together IRL.
Victoria The App: The SOHO House of dating apps: The online dating equivalent of the private members’ club, Victoria The App fosters meaningful connections between fellow creatives. Exclusive online experiences and members-only in person events await those accepted into the club by the membership panel.
