Schmooze Launches in India
Schmooze, the meme-based dating app, has launched in India. Backed by the same investors as Hinge and Snapchat, the platform uses humour and authenticity to help form connections.
Started by alumni from Stanford University, the platform uses AI to analyse how users interact with different memes. From there, this algorithm can predict characteristics about users, and consequently who they would be compatible with.
“We harnessed AI to extract what the language of memes says about people’s preferences to help them laugh their way to love. Schmooze isn’t just about matching; it’s about providing a space where humour becomes the bridge to forging meaningful relationships,” said Vidya Madhavan, co-founder of Schmooze.
Since its inception, the platform has overseen 3.5 million matches and 50 million meme swipes. It was previously only available in the U.S, but now expands to India.
