A founder who spent eight years building Tinder just raised $10.5 million for a new dating app.
Rivet replaces swiping with Matchers who vote on whether two profiles would click.
It launched nationwide in the US on September 24.

Dating has been desperate for innovation in a way that actually helps real people for at least the last five years. Building a database with a voice agent you pay $$$$ to enter is the most techbro take on dating ever, because it thinks only “efficiency” and utility is the point. So Silicon Valley keeps trying to build a DoorDash for Girlfriend model, with zero actual empathy for real people. Plus it is adverse selection - anyone who can’t find love otherwise puts themselves in because there is no fun or other reason to.
People don’t need a Mr/Ms Perfect. People need someone who is Perfect-for-them. People deserve to be seen and loved for who they really are. People deserve to feel less alone - as if they are failing if they don’t yet have the perfect life. It is high time technology works FOR the people, not to exploit them. Today we have the capability to do so much more with the tools in hand. Leadership and vision today matters more than it has in a decade.
dating is among the most potent consumer social space. and we are witnessing the transition from match group/bumble dominated era to the age of warring states again.
hearing from sources that match group (tinder, hinge, pretty much every single dating app) is financially, organizationally in shambles, not to mention the dilution of coherent vision.
finding love is one of those fields that can never be replaced as long as we exist.
been watching @Celesteamadon of @dateknown and her taste and grind gives off prime time whiteney wolfe energy. @ditto_dates is interesting too.
look out for the new king of this space.

To everyone complaining why does SF need a Tech Week when every week is a tech week, the reason is the same as why we have a Mother’s Day even though everyday is a mothers’ day

it’s been a couple of weeks but it already feels like a lot has happened
post building across gaming, rewards & then finally starting up in consumer social, i couldn't have found a better home than @rivetdating.
In the age of ai, when anything can be generated, the scarcer thing is the real tacit knowledge of humans. At rivet, we are leveraging this tacit knowledge & bringing the next big shift in the dating world post swipe: people powered dating.
having looked closely at the 2nd order effects of this model on acceptance rates, quality of matches & the experience of finding a date, i think there is hope for finding love & for building in consumer social.

After nearly a decade building and scaling some of the world’s largest dating products, Taru Kapoor (@tarukapoor) is taking a new approach to the category with Rivet (@rivetdating).
Rivet introduces Social Matching, a model that brings human judgment and community into how potential connections are surfaced, with people helping identify matches they think could work.

I'm not single so no matches for me, but I'm very ready for my Seema Aunty era as a matchmaker💘
