What we are for, and what we will not build.
Dating is not the destination. It is the part before it. For most people the point of an app like this is to stop needing it: to meet one person worth closing the account for.
Most dating products earn more the longer you stay single. Every incentive inside them points at keeping you here. We would rather be left. There are no ads and we do not sell data; a subscription that ends is the whole business model.
If that is how you see it too, this was built for you. If dating is a thing you enjoy for its own sake, that is a real choice and it is yours - we are simply not designing as though it were everyone's.
A daily like limit is not a safety feature. It is pacing: a way to make tomorrow necessary, and to put a price on getting past it. We do not ration the one action the whole thing depends on. Like as many people as you actually mean to.
What we limit is time, not you.
Three months is the limit, and it is the same whether you pay or not. Paying buys features, never more time.
When the three months are up, your profile pauses for a month. Nothing is deleted and nobody is blocked: your conversations stay, your profile stays, you simply cannot like or swipe. Take the month. Go to things. Meet people in rooms.
After it, you can come back for another three months, free or paid.
If that second run has not worked either, the account pauses again and we ask you to write to us. Someone reads your profile properly and tells you, at no charge, what we would change and why we think it is not landing. Then you can take another three months.
And if that has not worked, we stop. Export your data and delete the account, or just delete it and it all goes with it. At that point the honest answer is that this way of meeting people is not for you, and something else might be. We would rather say that than sell you a fourth round.
Not in effect yet. The cycle above is the rule we are building, not something the closed test enforces. A clock kept in your own browser is reset by clearing it, so a version that ran today would only apply to people who did not know how to avoid it - which is worse than no rule. It starts when accounts do. What already holds: three months is the longest term we sell, Premium never auto-renews, and the price is one number per country rather than one per person.
And if the price is the thing standing in the way, write to us and say so. We give three months of Premium at no charge, case by case, decided by a person. There is no form and nothing to prove.
No photo until you have each chosen to reveal. No voice notes until you have each opted in. Your orientation, faith, politics and intimacy answers are never in a shared link at all. Ask a friend for advice and they see a reduced profile that expires in seven days, while the person you asked about learns only that someone asked: never who, never what was said.
Each of those is a separate decision. Each one needs both of you. Each one can be taken back.
Not everyone can put their face on a public grid. In a small town everyone knows everyone, and an exposed profile becomes gossip, or a screenshot in the wrong group chat, or worse. Reading someone before seeing them is not a gimmick here. It is what makes this usable if you are quiet, or private, or simply live somewhere where being seen looking has a cost.
Your profile is not a public web page. The only part of it that ever leaves the app is a link you make yourself, for one person, for seven days.
Not signups. Replies, conversations that go somewhere, and people who leave because they found someone. That last number is the one we hold ourselves to, and it is the only one that would make this worth having built.
