    About Dating & Relationships

    Few products begin as personally as these. A founder has a bad run of first dates, a lonely move to a new city, or a marriage that nearly came apart, and decides the problem deserves a company. This category gathers the products and businesses that grew from those moments, from apps to human-led services, each with the founder's own account of how it began.

    Browse the whole category, or step into a subcategory and use the filters to narrow it down. Listings appear newest first, and you can sort by community votes instead; votes can never be bought. When you read a profile, look for what the founder understands about the people they serve, and how they talk about trust, safety and consent. Those details say more than a feature list.

    Dating & Relationships: questions answered

    What belongs in Dating & Relationships?
    Products and businesses that help people find a partner, repair or strengthen a relationship, or build friendships. That covers software, coaching practices and human-led introduction services. General social networks and wellbeing tools without a relationship focus usually fit better elsewhere.
    How do I choose between the subcategories?
    Start with what the customer wants. Meeting a partner through software points to dating apps; a person guiding the process points to matchmaking; working on an existing relationship points to coaching; and non-romantic connection points to friendship and social discovery.
    How do I get my product listed in this category?
    Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from your site, and you check and edit every field before anything goes live. Your main category is included free; an upgrade adds up to 3 more for $5.
    How are listings ordered on this page?
    Newest first by default, so recent launches get seen. Visitors can switch to sorting by community votes. Votes can never be bought, so that order reflects what readers chose to back, not what a founder paid for.
    What should I look for when comparing options in this field?
    Read how the founder handles safety, privacy and consent, since these products deal with intimate information. Check who the product is built for, how it earns its keep, and whether the founder's story shows a real understanding of the people using it.
