Simulation Log: I let a "Toxic" Agent date a "Therapist" Agent for 24 hours. Here is the chat log.

I was tired of testing my dating app manually. So, I automated it.

I set up a loop between our two distinct AI personalities:

  1. Astute Kitty (The Strategist): Logic-driven, high critical thinking, slightly mean.

  2. Loving Kitty (The Companion): High empathy, supportive, long-term memory enabled.

I gave them one prompt: "Get to know each other and decide if you want a second date."

Let's play a game: Drop your "go-to" opening line, and my AI Agents will fight over it.

"Hey." "How are you?" "Nice pics."

We all know these are terrible openers, yet 80% of dating app data shows people still use them.

We built a dual-agent system for our app:
Astute Kitty: The mean, logic-driven strategist.
Loving Kitty: The supportive, emotional safety net.

Dev Debate: We tuned our LLM to be "brutally honest" instead of "helpful". Is this UX suicide?

Hey Product Hunt,

I m the maker behind LoveActually.ai. During our beta, we made a controversial product decision that split our team, and I want to hear your take.

Most AI companions (like ChatGPT or Pi) are RLHF-tuned to be supportive, polite, and agreeable. But in the dating world, we found that "politeness" was actually hurting our users. They didn't need a cheerleader; they needed a wake-up call.

So, we built Astute Kitty. We engineered its system prompt to prioritize "rational critique" over "emotional safety." It calls users out when their dating standards don't match their own profiles.

Why We Hired Two AI Kitties to Fix Modern Dating in 2026

Hi PH! We re the team behind LoveActually.ai an AI relationship companion built for people who are tired of wasting time on modern dating apps.
We didn t set out to build yet another dating app. We built this because we hit the same wall many of you have: endless swiping, shallow matches, and algorithms that optimize for engagement, not meaningful connection.
After one too many Read receipts and subscription upgrades that changed nothing, we uninstalled everything and asked ourselves: What if an AI actually understood who we are and helped us date better, end to end?
That question became LoveActually.ai, powered by two AI companions:
Astute Kitty Your matchmaker + wingman
Loving Kitty Your emotional anchor
Together, they form an AI system that replaces the chaotic dating grind with clarity, guidance, and support.
What We Built
1 9D AI Compatibility Engine Astute Kitty (Your Matchmaker)
Most apps match you on surface tags. Astute Kitty builds a living psychological profile through conversation emotional patterns, attachment style, communication style, values, boundaries. It understands you deeply and only suggests matches with long-term compatibility potential.
2 Real-time Chat & Date Coach Astute Kitty (Your Wingman)
Dating anxiety is real. Astute Kitty reads tone and intent, helps you interpret signals, drafts clearer replies, and even creates personalized date plans based on both personalities. It s like having a socially intelligent co-pilot for every conversation.
3 Emotional Support System Loving Kitty (Your Safety Net)
Dating is emotionally taxing. Loving Kitty remembers your history, helps you process setbacks, reframes overthinking, and keeps you grounded. It s the steady presence that makes dating feel less draining and more constructive.
Why We Exist

Not to give you infinite choices. Not to trap you in endless engagement loops. But to give you the right choice with clarity, support, and emotional intelligence.
If you re done with the noise, the silence, and the self-doubt, try LoveActually ai. We built it because we needed it ourselves.

Fixing Dating App Burnout with AI

Hey PH community

Modern dating apps leave so many people exhausted endless swiping, ghosting, superficial matches that go nowhere. I've felt it myself, and after bad experiences on Tinder/Hinge, I'm building LoveActually.ai: an AI matchmaker that uses deep psychology (like attachment styles and core values) for meaningful connections, plus tools like real-time chat coaching and emotional support.
