@kristin_tynski how do you solve the chicken and egg challenge? It's hard to get me (or anyone else) to spend considerable amount of time creating deep content without knowing there is a large audience of potential matches to see it. any specific geographies you are targeting?

@drewmeyers We've focused on NYC to build some initial volume, but organic user acquisition has come from many places worldwide, especially after we've seen press pickups in many places. Fortunately, the app's very fun to explore, even for those who don't have a lot of local users. The fun of browsing/reading how other users answer fascinating questions is keeping users around in locations where there is not yet a critical mass. As we reach critical mass in specific locations, there is an associated uptick in activation and retention, so we hope to see this trend continue as our user base grows. Great question!

@kristin_tynski got it... i'm a big fan of anything that aims to make valuable in person connections. it's not easy to get the flywheel spinning though :(

I read "Find fellow intellectuals to love" as dating app for academia. And admittedly I got excited a little...

The real value behind this app is how you become more visible to more potential mates based on the number of questions you answer. People who are genuinely interested in meeting someone authentic and lovable will see the value in answering more "about me" questions, and from my experience, those who are willing to share more than pics are more interesting, better educated, and much friendlier. Way to go Kristin!

From the makers: "The only dating app that gets to the core of people through their lived experiences, heartfelt opinions, and bold passions." That sounds like a good approach :-)

@kristin_tynski brilliant idea, I am just worried about the traction / for example if I am in UK what is the chance to meet somebody? Or it will be a long distance relationship? What you do to get more users?
