The creation of Loveair was inspired by an intriguing TikTok Live matchmaking program I stumbled upon. In this program, people (mostly women) join the live session, and men request to join to speak to someone they’re interested in. At intervals, the host asks the women to introduce themselves because more people are joining the live. As I watched them, I realized you can get so much more depth about individuals from seeing them introduce themselves than from reading bios and seeing a couple of pictures, as is done on current dating apps. I conducted countless research on current dating platforms and was not impressed. Even if we set aside the ethical and moral implications of these platforms, which are numerous, there are other significant concerns. For instance, a 2020 report highlighted that dating platforms contributed to 33% of financial losses due to scams. Unlike social media platforms, dating platforms have a greater responsibility to eliminate catfishing and phishing threats due to the emotional investment users make on these platforms. This investment can sometimes blind their judgment and critical analysis of who they are communicating with, making them victims. Essentially, there is a significant gap in the industry and pain points that users experience. Loveair’s mission is to couple the world, and the first version of Loveair that will be released is just one step in that direction.
