Bozheville is an interest-first connection platform for friendship and dating. Instead of leading with curated photos, users match through shared interests and pixel avatars first. We keep the familiar swipe mechanic but change what you evaluate. The goal is to reduce surface-level filtering and shift focus toward compatibility, conversation, and vibe before appearance.

Hi Product Hunt people:)👋 I’m Tatiana, founder of Bozheville. This is a side project that is born out of a simple idea - we evaluate people in one second, but it takes months to get to know someone. Dating and matchmaking apps have made that worse - everyone focuses on appearance, people dismiss potential romantic partners and friends based on centimetres height or the angle a picture is taken. I’ve been married over 10 years. My husband and I talked for years before meeting in person, with very few photos. That foundation mattered more than looks. Of course it helped that he is hot when we met but still:) Now, 10 years later, I see how early appearance has become currency even more. Everyone feels it, men and women. I can’t count the number of friends I have who complain they are on all dating apps in existence and still can’t even get beyond few lines of conversation. I’d love your thouths on: • Does removing photo-first browsing meaningfully change behavior? • Would you try this for friendship, dating, or neither? • What would make you actually switch to a new connection platform in 2026? Thank you for your time♡

Based on user feedback made some changes to the UI for pixel cards, added an option to view skipped profiles and put them back in the mix (for whoever believes in second chances:)) and adding a blog.
