We built Curate because dating apps stopped being about dating. They make money the longer you stay single, so they're built to keep you swiping, not to get you out. Endless feeds, paywalled matches, and everyone on there except the people you'd actually like. We're not reinventing the dating app. We just built the one we wanted to use. The parts everyone else charges for are free, and we'd rather you meet someone and stop needing us. Curate is for University of Texas at Austin students. You sign up with a UT Austin student email, so everyone you see goes to your school. You must be 18 or older. THE FREE APP IS THE WHOLE APP Everything you need to meet someone is free. Not free-trial free. Free. • Discover: swipe through UT students • Today's picks: an AI learns your type from how you swipe and lines up a handful of people worth meeting, every day. Free • Two-step matching: rate the photos, then the personality. A match takes a full yes on both, from both of you • See who likes you: always visible, never paywalled. We're not holding your matches hostage • Chat: real-time messaging with your matches CURATE PREMIUM We only charge for the things that cost us money every time you use them. Everything else is free because it's free for us to deliver. • More picks, now. Out of today's? Pull a fresh set immediately instead of waiting for tomorrow One plan: $9.99 per week, auto-renewing. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. The free app stays fully usable if you never pay us a cent. THE FINE PRINT WE ACTUALLY MEAN • UT Austin students only for now. Signup requires a UT Austin student email • 18+ only, enforced at signup • Report and block tools are built in, and we review reports • Your photos and data are yours.
