The longest running AI matchmaker. @BotCupid learns who you are to create better matches and support you before, during, and after the relationship. Free to use
We had a professional matchmaker try Dataing V2.
We’ve been building this patiently since 2023, with real intention behind every detail.
This was her reaction.
Really grateful to the @UCLA Bruin Finance Society for having us.
For an early-stage startup, conversations like these matter a lot.
The feedback, recommendations, and perspectives from the BFS members were incredibly valuable and will directly help shape what we’re building at Dataing.
One of the simplest visualizations of relationship dynamics we’ve seen.
Healthy relationships are rarely built through pressure or endless attention.
They’re usually built through understanding, emotional balance, timing, and reciprocity.
We believe the future of AI matchmaking is not generating more matches.
It’s helping people better understand themselves and each other.
That’s why we’re building Dataing.
Mark and the team had a nice and productive time at Portland Start Up Week.
Portland has one of the most underrated entrepreneur communities, tons of great people and passionate builders.

A user vibe coded the first app built on top of the Dataing API.
Dance to Y(our) Own Beat generates personalized music from a users personality and digital footprint.
Songs can be generated for one person, a couple, or an entire room.
There will likely be many more apps built on Dataing due to the highest levels of personalization.
@heymorewords Not really failed, they made as much money as much as they could.
Didn't work for users, but worked well for shareholders of Match Group.
Dating shouldn’t feel like a numbers game. But most apps turn it into one: more swipes, more matches, more noise. We believe one great connection is worth more than a hundred random ones, and our platform is designed to help you find exactly that.
Mark and Eric had a very productive day 1 at the @TheBitcoinConf.
Shocked and appreciative of all the support we got from the @Bitcoin and @Stacks communities.
Onwards and upwards 🚀
there's a less flashy problem downstream that I don't see anyone talking about:
the market is obsessed with top of funnel - creating experiences to meet people. but nobody is building for how to *actually* create long-lasting connection.
$800M deployed on IRL and almost all of it is solving for: how do we get you to come to the room.
dinners, events, speakeasys, blind dates - important & all genuinely cool stuff.
the reason this is hitting is because people are lonely. people want to come together IRL.
but the loneliness epidemic isn't a discovery problem (there's events near you, I promise)... it's a follow-through problem
the gap is: you meet people but *still* don't have long-term friendships around you.
building real friendship is unsexy work - it takes time and effort:
> putting yourself out there
> finding people you vibe with
> being vulnerable
> asking people to hang
> getting rejected
> trying new things
> inviting people over
> building recurring routines
this is exactly the part nobody's building for.
you can go to all the events in the world and still feel lonely - because nobody's building for what to do AFTER.
we're in a loneliness crisis.
let's build tech, products, and communities that solve it for the long-run.
User feedback is the signal.
“Convenient, yet less superficial.”
That’s not just a testimonial, it’s validation of a shift:
from engagement-driven dating apps → to outcome-driven relationships.
We believe AI- matchmaking will be defined by understanding and empathizing people, not just pairing them.
