### 2/5 — Great Potential but lot to improve on

*2026-08-19, version 71.1*

1). The AI will do things like “take into account my preferences” and continue to ignore them.  For example, I told it twice to not show me people from a certain area and  it repeatedly did so.

2).  Making date reservations with my Resy account without my permission (even after stating I didn’t authorize it to use my account and telling it to stop doing that!).  Booked a reservation that had a $50 cancellation policy and never bothered to tell me until it was too late and my date wanted to switch to a more casual location.

3).  Customer support is quite lacking atm.

4).  The text formatting bug is kind dumb and should be an easy fix.  Where the QA team at?

I get that this app is designed to make dating efficient, but I cannot trust it if it will start doing sensitive things without my permission.  I genuinely do like using the app otherwise, and hope they can improve on this.  I would like to be able to come back and leave a better review!

### 2/5 — Formatting is off

*2026-08-13, version 70.0*

Some bug changed how the text is displayed and I see all the ** for bolding text without the formatting.  Should be an easy fix,  please take a look, annoying to read right now.

### 4/5 — Very cool

*2026-07-12, version 69.3*

First time using it and I’m intrigued at the possibilities. Instead of mindless swiping you can make meaningful matches whether it works out or not.

### 5/5 — Best matchmaking event!

*2026-07-09, version 69.3*

Loved the vibe! Met really handsome people
Definitely the party to be in NYC

### 5/5 — Great way of meeting people

*2026-07-09, version 69.3*

Great way of meeting people

### 5/5 — Loved the party!!!

*2026-07-09, version 69.3*

Amazing energy, I meet a lot of men and good friends! 10/10

### 1/5 — Not intentional at all, not worth the time

*2026-07-03, version 69.2*

Didn’t take into account my preferences of childfree .
Matches are not within commuting distance from me .

### 1/5 — I don’t want kids, Amata

*2026-06-30, version 69.1*

A waste of time when it can’t follow directions. All it can say is research shows that it doesn’t matter and keeps showing me people who want children. AI slop in app form.

### 1/5 — Terrible! Scam.

*2026-06-29, version 69.1*

Okay. So I matched with two women. 1. You cannot converse with them until 2 hours before your date. 2. The date doesn’t get scheduled until you pay $20 before hand. 3. Once you give them $20, then and only then can you pick your availability for this date. 4. You have to wait until the other person you matched picks their availability. If they don’t signing a few days; it gets canceled and you do NOT get refunded the $20. You keep the “date token”. 5. The women on this app appear to be real, but neither of them picked their availability in the time frame and I essentially lost $40. So no, this app is absolute terrible and a huge waste of time.

### 4/5 — Needs some refinement

*2026-06-29*

I think it is more efficient and the future of online dating for sure but because you cant talk to the person until the date or just 2 hours before it leads to cold feet and people cancelling. So itd be nice to have a required video or audio feature of the person you going to meet saying 'i look forward to meeting you'. That gives it a human touch, can see what they look and sound like beyond pics which are usually filtered, cropped or old. I also wish the ai would give me feedback on my profile and pics and why the people didnt pick me that i wanted to meet in a constructive way. I also wish ai didnt ask me questions again i already answered in previous convo with it. I also wish i could zoom in on user pics because some are far away and hard to tell what they look like. I also wish i could choose the venue or have more non alcohol places. Otherwise great concept that im sure other apps will implement.

### 1/5 — Good idea bad execution

*2026-08-17, version 71.1*

The promise to facilitate dates is nice but actually there are very few people on here and the AI is constantly lying to while asking you constant questions. I wanted to just meet people for dates but instead I’m texting a bot all day. Then when you setup a date people cancel the day before. Which is basically the same as any other app.

### 1/5 — It’s so stupid AI

*2026-08-13, version 70.0*

It is so stupid can’t understand your request. For example you wanna looking for an American, it still shows you other people who are not American even you told it many times, it still doing same thing! So stupid

### 1/5 — Do not use / waste your time

*2026-08-03, version 69.4*

Horrendous app, terrible matches. Dont waste your time

### 1/5 — Nothing on here

*2026-07-31, version 69.4*

This app didn’t even let me on the site been more then maybe 2 months haven’t even been able to date anyone or let alone be on the app trash waste of time

### 1/5 — Great concept but poor execution

*2026-07-29, version 69.4*

Wouldn’t refund me even when I contacted within 24 hours of a new billing cycle. 

It’s really hard to figure out someone’s personality without any prompts or user level customization of a profile. Went on one date with someone I would’ve definitely avoided if I had seen on Hinge. Overall I like the idea of directly going to a date but they need a lot more work on what info they present on each person to identify a match and in general more quality people on the app

### 1/5 — Great if you love paying to get ghosted!

*2026-07-26, version 69.4*

Download this app if you love paywalls, canceled dates, and zero customer service. If that’s what you’re looking for, you will love this app!

### 1/5 — be careful the tokens are non refundable

*2026-07-22, version 69.4*

If your match doesn’t want to go to the date? Yeah your tokens are locked in the account forever and you can’t ask for refund!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t listened

*2026-07-20, version 69.4*

Numerous times I told the ai only a certain type of guys. It’s like noted then it shows the type I said no to. I’ve said numerous times no Muslims they done see women as equals yet still shows Muslim men a lot

### 1/5 — Selection were thin in my area.

*2026-07-14, version 69.3*

I didn’t have many matches in my area, and one date. While it was a “pleasant” time, the interface was jenky and it tripped my fraud lock on all my cards and bank accounts

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2026-07-09, version 69.3*

Bots run this app. It’s a waste of your time and money.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Works

*2026-07-31, version 69.4*

The app really works to set you up on legitimate dates. Trust in the process and it will pay off! I recommend highly for serious daters.

### 5/5 — A.I Match Making

*2026-07-30, version 69.4*

So far it’s been cool! I appreciate the features. and it’s so futuristic!

### 5/5 — Great app, minor notes

*2026-07-29, version 69.4*

Easier/ more painless in comparison to swipe-based apps. Some minor issues:
- It has recommended someone I’ve already met / said no to a few times
- Algorithm doesn’t always remember what I tell it 
- If there was a way to wait a little longer before deciding yes/no on meeting someone that could be nice but I imagine in someways defeat the purpose. 

I guess since it’s new the user base isn’t as big yet but with mote promo & time I imagine that will fix itself. Overall though, I’ve had only good experiences here.

### 5/5 — Great Concept

*2026-07-28, version 69.4*

Very much enjoying the process

### 5/5 — Great Option

*2026-07-21, version 69.4*

Love that you aren’t spending all day swiping & presents options to you.

### 5/5 — Finally an app that skips small talk

*2026-07-20, version 69.4*

This is a great way to meet like-minded people who are looking to date intentionally.

### 5/5 — Fun safe dates

*2026-07-19, version 69.4*

This app is pretty cool and lets you plan dates for the future with people who are actually trying to date, unlike other sites where you don’t know exactly what you’re going to get. You have to pay for a subscription or pay per date, which can be a bit pricey, but it’s worth every penny and the back-and-forth with people who are actually trying to meet up.

### 5/5 — Review

*2026-07-17, version 69.4*

I’ve really enjoyed using Amata so far. It’s a refreshing change from the usual swipe-based dating apps. I like that the AI takes the time to get to know you, suggests thoughtful matches, and actually gets you to a real date instead of endless messaging. Having the app coordinate the time and venue made the whole experience feel easy and intentional. My first date was genuinely enjoyable, and I’m looking forward to seeing where future matches lead. If you’re tired of traditional dating apps and want a more meaningful approach, I’d definitely recommend giving Amata a try.

### 5/5 — Actions over Words

*2026-07-16, version 69.4*

Amata has been a game changer for me in the dating scene. It allows you to form genuine connections and get to know people without the performative pressure. I love it

### 5/5 — One of the best dating apps

*2026-07-15, version 69.3*

Very useful if you are looking for real dates instead of endless texts. Also I like how the app takes care of the logistics as to when and where is best for the first date to take place
