TWYNED — MATCH, PLAN, MEET. Twyned is a date-planning app designed for people who are ready to meet in real life. Skip the endless chatting and start making actual plans with people who match your energy, preferences, and availability. Built around intentional dating, Twyned helps you move from matching to planned dates through a collaborative scheduling experience. Choose a date type, select a time and place, and send a real date request — all within the app. Whether you are new to the city, tired of conversations that go nowhere, or looking for something more genuine, Twyned is designed to make dating feel more intentional and real. HOW TWYNED WORKS 1. Create your profile: Add photos, preferences, availability, and first-date interests. 2. Discover people: Browse profiles based on location, filters, and compatibility preferences. 3. Match with intention: When there is mutual interest, move forward by planning a real date. 4. Plan the date: Choose a date type, select a time and place, and optionally include a message. 5. Confirm the plan: The other person can accept, decline, or suggest a different time or location. 6. Manage confirmed dates: Accepted plans appear in the app’s dedicated Dates section. BUILT FOR REAL DATE PLANNING Twyned is designed to help people move from matching to planned dates instead of staying in endless swiping or messaging loops. After matching, users have 72 hours to coordinate a real date, encouraging more intentional interactions and reducing inactive matches. Users can plan a date by selecting a date type, choosing a time and location, and optionally including a message. The recipient can accept the request, decline it, or suggest a different time or place. Once confirmed, the date appears in the app’s dedicated Dates section for easy coordination and upcoming plan management. Messaging is centered around confirmed date plans, helping keep interactions focused on real-world meetings rather than endless conversations. WHY TWYNED IS DIFFERENT • Date-first design: Twyned is built to help people create real plans, not just collect matches. • Move from match to planned date: The experience is centered around planning and confirming real first dates. • Time-focused date requests: Users can send and respond to date requests with a selected date type, time, and location. • Focused chat window: Messaging is designed for date coordination and last-minute updates. • Safety and respect: Users can remove, block, or report profiles directly within the app. • Post-date feedback: Users can share feedback following completed date experiences. SAFETY & RESPECT Twyned is designed to support a safer and more respectful dating experience. The app includes safety-focused features such as profile reporting, removing, blocking, and profile authenticity/verification measures, allowing users to take action directly within the app when needed. Twyned encourages respectful behavior and public meetups for first dates. Following a scheduled date, users can provide post-date feedback, including no-show feedback, to help support a more accountable and reliable dating experience.

Hapiton finds the right person nearby, makes the introduction, and brings you together. Real life. Literally, in seconds. Here’s how Hapiton works for you: Compass Chat Tell Hapiton what you're looking for. When it finds someone, it tells you about them and opens a conversation. Sometimes it reaches out on its own, when someone is right. You’ll only be notified of messages once you’ve replied to them, so there's no spam. Not a fit? Unmatch, and tell Hapiton what was off so it does better next time. Compass Moment Go to one of our meeting zones, likely somewhere you already go. When someone nearby seems right, Hapiton reaches out to you both. If you both say yes, your compasses activate and guide you to each other. A real conversation with a real person, in seconds. Privacy and control Your exact location is never visible to anyone until both people say yes to meeting. You decide when the compass is on, and can turn it off anytime in settings. You can delete your account and all your data with one tap. Why Hapiton We're a public benefit corporation. Our mission is to rebuild human interaction in real life, not to maximize the time you spend staring at a screen. Free during our pilot. Questions? Email support@hapiton.online. A real person reads every message. Born from the silence that ended when someone said hello.
