Kirke: AI-Powered Matchmaking
Revolutionizing online dating by eliminating endless swiping and delivering one highly compatible match at a time.
The Problem: Dating App Fatigue
Today's singles face an exhausting online dating experience:
  • Endless swiping with minimal returns
  • Apps filled with AI bots, little human interaction
  • Juggling dozens of conversations that lead nowhere
  • Time-consuming process that feels like a part-time job
79% of Gen Z users report feeling burned out by current dating apps due to these frustrations.
Introducing Kirke: The Anti-Swipe Dating App
Comprehensive Profile
Users complete a personality quiz and share key details about themselves, and what they're looking for.
AI Matchmaking
Our algorithm analyzes compatibility factors to curate one high-quality match at a time - no swiping required.
Focused Connection
Users chat with their single match, giving each other undivided attention rather than competing others.
Continuous Improvement
After each match, users provide feedback that helps our AI learn and improve future matches for everyone.
Like having a personal matchmaker in your pocket, Kirke does the heavy lifting so you can focus on genuine connection.
Our Unique Approach
Traditional Apps
Endless swiping through hundreds of profiles
Matching based primarily on photos
Multiple conversations at once
Static algorithms with no learning
Kirke
One curated match at a time
Matching based on personality and interests
Focused on a single conversation
AI learns from your feedback
Kirke creates synchronized "match events" where users receive their match at the same time, creating anticipation and a shared experience. This communal aspect makes online dating feel more like a social event than a solitary task.
>25 % of dating‑app profiles are bot‑generated.
Kirke is Authentic
Combatting Bots & Fakes
Many apps are plagued by AI-generated profiles and fake conversations, leading to user frustration and distrust.
Advanced AI Detection
Kirke's intelligent system proactively identifies and filters out suspicious accounts before they enter the community.
Fostering Real Connection
We ensure a healthy, human-centric environment where users can genuinely connect without fear of inauthenticity.
Silent Bot Matching
If a profile is suspected to be a bot, it is silently matched with other bots, safeguarding the authentic user base.
Massive Market Opportunity
Online Dating Market
  • $6+ billion industry with 15.7% YoY growth
  • Over 360 million users worldwide
  • 37% of U.S. adults have tried online dating
  • 56% of 18-29 year-olds have used dating apps
Despite widespread usage, dissatisfaction is at an all-time high—creating the perfect opportunity for a revolutionary approach like Kirke.
Competitive Landscape
Swipe Apps (Tinder, Bumble)
Large user base, quick matches, but highly superficial with high burnout rates. Users often complain about low-quality interactions.
Profile-Based (Hinge)
More depth with prompts, but still user-driven with multiple matches at once. Still requires constant browsing and selection.
Algorithm Matchmakers (eHarmony)
Extensive questionnaires and compatibility algorithms, but outdated UX and target older demographics. Onboarding is time-consuming.
Slow Dating Apps (Coffee Meets Bagel)
Limited matches per day for quality focus, but lack AI optimization and have smaller communities. No feedback loop for improvement.
Kirke's Edge: Combines the depth of compatibility algorithms with modern UX and a revolutionary learning AI that continuously improves match quality based on real interaction feedback.
How Kirke Works
  1. Complete a fun 5-minute personality quiz (based on psychometrics) and create your profile
  1. Receive notification when your match is ready
  1. Chat freely with your match - no time limits
  1. End the match whenever you're ready
