This is not what society needed. This is literally a South Park plotline. But maybe stuff like this will just slowly cause dating apps to fade into irrelevance and force people to find better ways to meet others. So maybe there's an upside?
We hope that new alternatives will emerge, but there is a specific group of individuals who truly believe these tools can help boost their confidence.
In contrast, we believe apps like Rizz are not only superficial, but also fail to provide a personalized or meaningful experience. We see a unique opportunity to make a real difference in this niche market.
We invite you to apply and try it for yourself. The journey ahead is long, but we're excited about the potential we have to create something better
There are few things as significant and human as trying to find a partner. Gotta persevere the sanctity of that. All the best!
On the one hand, you say that this will help you discover your "unique voice" and yet in your post: "suggest messages that get replies". So your prospective match isn't getting to know you, it's getting to know an LLM.
How is this better than the classic bait-and-switch of using a fake or heavily doctored profile pic, except now it's extended to even the user's personality?
Skeptical that this will be a "good" experience for everyone involved considering how generic AI openers/responses are, but also hopeful that it can reduce friction for some.
Excited to see what y'all cook up.
This might be our greatest differentiator.
We are trying to make it as personalized to you as possible. Currently, it is still limited, but we seek as much context of the user and the matches to personalize each message over time.

Reminds me of Rob Rhinehart's (Soylent Founder) article: "High Frequency Dating" from 11 years ago.

That is a really cool reference!
Aren't there a lot of apps like this already, like Rizz? I just read this thread about them on reddit [0], looks like they're making ~200k MRR but it's a race to the bottom as the idea is fairly easy to execute on, it's just an AI API wrapper.
