With Rater, we have built a unique "Anti-Catfishing" online dating platform that is focused on user authenticity, honesty, and safety. The concept behind Rater came from an experience of the Founder when she fell victim to a dating app romance scam in 2018. The financial impact of romance scams has hit over $1 billion (FTC and FBI reports), and that figure is only increasing year after year. Over 70% of online dating profiles are lying about one or more items displayed. And to top it all off, singles are feeling "swiping fatigue" and really craving real-life connection and interaction with others. Rater offers a multi-tiered solution to these issues, combining AI and human verification, community feedback, and real-life event opportunities. Key Features: AI Verified and Human Vetted Profiles: Significantly reduce the risk of catfishing and online dishonesty. Anti-Catfishing Technology: Ensuring that what you see is what you get. Exclusive Real-Life Events: Join Radar by Rater pop-up mixers and meet verified singles in-person. Real-Time User Feedback: Rate your interactions and see feedback from others to help you avoid scammers. Safety First: Every user undergoing phone number checks in onboarding, and profile verification ensures you’re meeting real, authentic people. How It Works: Download & Create Your Profile: Find Rater through social media, word-of-mouth, or our in-person events. Verification: Complete the AI-powered IDMTrust check for authenticity, and get a verified badge for higher visibility in the Rater matching algorithm. Community Feedback: Rate and review interactions to help others engage with trustworthy profiles. Meet at Real Events: Attend Radar by Rater events to connect with singles in person, creating authentic connections beyond the app. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://raterdownload.com/terms-of-use

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Founder Feast at 5.0 against Rater Date's 4.4. Founder Feast also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). Rater Date's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ratings volume (20 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rater Date sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Founder Feast sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Founder Feast holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rater Date has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Rater Date ships an update monthly, Founder Feast every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
