AI-Driven YouMatch App Raises $1.5M in Funding to Revive Conscious Dating Experience

General

YouMatch,
an
innovative
AI-driven
dating
app
operating
in
the
rapidly
growing
Telegram
Ecosystem,
announced
that
it
has
secured
$1.5M
in
a
Seed
round
led
by
IOI
Capital,
with
participation
from
angel
investors.
This
makes
YouMatch
the
first
Telegram
App
which
publicly
announced
external
investment.

Founded
in
early
2024,
YouMatch.ai
redefines
the
dating
landscape
by
leveraging
scientific
research
to
enhance
human
connections.
Based
on
AI
facial
decoding
technology,
YouMatch
also
integrates
well-established
psychological
tools
as
Mastern’s DISC
model,
an
instrument
to
measure
dimensions
of
different
personalities
and
the
behavioral
responses
associated
with
them.
In
symbiosis
with
the
latest
human-science
discoveries
it
creates
a
completely
unique
method.

In
recent
years,
AI
facial
recognition
has
established
itself
as
an
indispensable
technology
that
made
its
way
to
multiple
areas,
including
banking,
HR.
After
accumulating
international
research
and
the
experience
of
global
corporations,
YouMatch
advanced
AI
facial
recognition
and
adapted
it
to
the
dating
industry,
the
new
way
of
matchmaking,
that
transformed
the
industry
–
a
person
first
understands
himself
better
and
his
own
personal
characteristics,
and
then
consciously
enters
into
acquaintance
with
the
match.
Like
in
popular
series
about
the
future
of
relations,
the
technology
now
can
implement
comprehensive
personality
analysis,
discovering
user’s
behavioral
traits,
individual
needs,
and
potential
risks
just
by
the
shot
of
a
frontal
camera.
Relying
on
a
compatibility
analysis,
AI-driven
algorithms
ensure
precise
matches
that
are
likely
to
grow
into
healthy
and
harmonious
relationships
when
both
partners’
needs
are
fulfilled.
Such
a
fundamental
and
conscious
approach
correlates
with
Gen
Z,
often described as
open-minded,
pragmatic,
and
socially
responsible.
They
prioritize
mindfulness
and
self-growth
and
feel
tired
of
superficial
swiping.

“With
over 400
million
users interacting
with
mini
apps
on
Telegram
every
month
we
are
excited
to
provide
an
infrastructure
where
people
can
connect
and
build
relationships
moving
away
from
consumerism
and
obsession
with
mindless
swiping
to
a
deeper
personal
connection,”
says
Stan
Kos,
CEO
&
Founder
of
YouMatch.ai.
“Leveraging
sophisticated
AI
face
decoding
technologies,
YouMatch
accurately
identifies
personality
types
and
key
traits,
providing
a
unique
and
tailored
dating
experience”, he
continues.

The
funding
will
be
used
to
accelerate
expansion
to
Web
and
Apps,
expand
its
presence
in
the
markets
including
Europe,
US
and
the
MENA
region
and
further
drive
product
development
enabling
deeper
and
personalized
conscious
dating
experience.

“For
a
long
time,
the
dating
industry
has
been
waiting
for
dramatic
changes,
that
the
story
with
swipes
and
boring
long
tests
is
already
burning
out.
YouMatch.ai
has
built
an
original
product
using
technology
of
AI
face
decoding
to
solve
a
modern
problem
in
a
thoughtful,
ethical
way.
Its
unique
matchmaking
system
brings
innovation
to
the
dating
space,
and
we’re
excited
to
support
them
as
they
scale
to
new
heights”, says
Felix
Haas,
Partner
of
IOI
Capital, “
We
believe
AI
has
revolutionized
multiple
industries,
and
YouMatch
is
poised
to
lead
that
transformation
for
online
dating”.
