Our Los Angeles Conference returns tomorrow, presented in association with GoogleSendBirdCensio and Spectrum!

SendBird is a fully customisable chat and messaging platform with a managed infrastructure for mobile and web applications. Their product includes everything you need to create a premium and secure messaging experience, and it can scale over 1 million concurrent chat connections and 500 million messages per day. With SendBird, dating brands can build engaged communities and give users a seamlessly branded experience.

Censio is the first matchmaking app. Just like a matchmaker, Censio guides users from the start of the search process, all the way through to finding, meeting, and matching with that special someone. The platform uses a proprietary AI technology to curate highly compatible matches based on behaviors, personality, activities, and ‘real life’ past dating experiences.

Spectrum helps some of the worlds largest dating companies recognise and respond to toxic behaviour on their platforms in real time in order to keep their users safe and their online communities healthy. They provide enterprise-level tools to manage existing and emerging threats to trust and safety, including underage users, harassment, and sexual assaults.
