Another CNNMoney video about modern love has been produced, this time interviewing the founders of Hinge and Tinder, to see how they use big data and algorithms to match up their users.

Laurie Segall, CNNMoney’s Tech Correspondent, previously did a segment on the tech-orientated San Francisco swinger parties, the emergence of virtual sex, and “Friday night on Tinder”.

The latest video is part of a series called Love Inc, that features interviews with dating executives and singles looking for love.

In this video, Segall speaks to Hinge founder Justin McLeod – whose media presence has grown since the app’s recent round of funding, and ahead of their London launch – and Tinder founder Sean Rad, who talks about their upcoming Tinder Plus premium service that is due next month.
