| There is an inherent problem that plagues all dating apps. The world is getting smaller — instead of choosing a mate from the pool of our college classmates or neighborhood friends, we’re now connected to everyone on the planet with a few taps of the thumb.
This means that dating apps rarely run short of people to serve up, which means that we’re playing a game of optimization. Folks looking for something serious rarely declare that on their profile, while folks looking for a hot night rarely explicitly state that. Profiles are, instead, an optimized version of ourselves, equipped with the photos and information that are most likely to receive the highest volume of inbound engagement.
This leads to a lot of swipes, a lot of matches, a lot of messages, and a lot of time spent talking to people that you probably won’t have a true connection with. There is no system in place to filter down people you are both physically attracted to and intellectually inspired by.
That’s where Sapio comes in. |
