Most dating apps just give you options. Sitch gives you a matchmaker. Your AI matchmaker gets to know you: what you want, what you don't, and what makes you unique — and uses all of it to introduce you to people actually worth your time. Every profile is reviewed by real people on our team. Sitch sets you up so you can spend your time dating, not searching. How Sitch works: Answer a few questions to create a profile. Share your preferences, your non-negotiables, your nice-to-haves. Your matchmaker sends you curated introductions with photos, background, and why this person could be a fit. After every introduction, send a note back about what worked and what didn't. Be as specific as you want. That's not picky. That's the point. As you keep using the app, we'll ask questions to learn more about what makes you you. When your matchmaker finds someone you should meet, and you both say yes, we'll set you up. ————— Live in NYC, SF, LA, Chicago, and Austin. More cities coming soon.
