Why don't dating apps work?
Dating profiles are boring because they're
written for everyone.
Imagine applying to 100 jobs. Would you send the exact same résumé
to every position? Not a great plan. In real life, we show
different sides of ourselves to different people, depending on
what we have in common. Online dating should work the same way:
different profiles for different matches.
Meet people, not profiles
Written is built on a simple belief: people are not profiles. Our
ontology-based algorithm understands you beyond a handful of
random facts, then uncovers what you have in common with each
potential match. You might be surprised by what you find.
Written Lab is led by doctoral researchers studying intimate
relationships and neuroscience. The way we help you connect is
grounded in real science, not guesswork. At the same time, we're
dating-app veterans ourselves. We know that science matters, but
what matters even more, is the spark.
