Description

Many clubs enforce "couples only" policies, leaving stags frustrated due to denied entry. Women, while enjoying free entry, don’t have financial benefits or a structured way to engage with stags. Safety and trust issues

it's really good to some extent. needs a lot of refinement. good problem identification. and to put it simply, it a dating app with a purpose of connection. (like... traditional dating apps don't have a specific moto other than dating, ) this has a new ring to it. Like.. let's assume if it's not going to work out between the matched partners, it can be portrayed as helping the other member to get access. Some suggestions IMO: 1.) it's kinda portrayed as "The male is paying a little amount to get a girl". So, this can be takeled as, you don't need to pay money on spot you can basically get her in app tokens, where she can redeem it after 2~3 connections. And the redemption should be done in the pub as drinks or sides or etc.. [converting it to money doesn't sound good] (This helps the users get hooked to your product top). Also i assume the people who go to pubs don't care about the money. And also I don't know how pubs work (not 21 yet 😅). Please help me understand the rules. A group could contain a single female and get entered into the pub?. Or one pair is only allowed 😅. ? (If it's one girl per group, I have a question).

We created an application once I was in my 2nd year of my college. Where seniors shows the juniors their best PG/hostels near the college. Basically the hostelers who wanted to move out from college come can use our application and select their wanted guides to show arround the hostel that they lived. What could go wrong?. It turned out as a dating site, eventually the hostel seekers selected women to show around the hostels and they ended up dating. This also gets the same output. You could build your project/startup based on your way of utilisation, but people use it according to their comfort 🤷🏻‍♂️. It's my opinion tho. However all the best 👍🏻.

Thanks for your input, but it seems there’s a fundamental misunderstanding here. Let me clarify: this is not a dating app. The purpose of this platform is connection with intent, which extends far beyond romantic relationships. It’s about fostering meaningful interactions—be it professional networking, friendships, or collaboration on common interests. The entire ethos is different from the typical “swipe-right-for-romance” mentality. Your suggestion about using in-app tokens to facilitate connections also misses the mark. While I understand the intent behind this idea, it introduces a transactional dynamic to the platform that directly contradicts our vision. This isn’t about “earning” a connection or gamifying human relationships. Moreover, tokens or incentives for connections create the impression that interactions need to be “purchased” or rewarded, which goes against the platform’s goal of building genuine, purpose-driven relationships. Users are here to connect with others based on shared intent, not to engage in a system that feels transactional or commercialized. If the aim is to promote connections, we need to focus on fostering trust, compatibility, and meaningful value—not creating mechanics that dilute the authenticity of the experience. I appreciate your enthusiasm and suggestions, but this direction does not align with the platform’s goals.

Your idea is great and could work well, but I have a concern: If your app helps two people match, they meet at a club, and become good friends, they might not need your app again They could just exchange contact info and plan future hangouts without it From a business perspective, this means most users would only use your app once How would you address this and encourage repeat use?

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand your concerns, and it’s important to address the cultural nuances and potential perceptions in the Indian market. Allow me to explain how our model works and how it is designed to ensure sustainability, fairness, and a positive user experience. Revenue Model: We charge ₹500 as a pairing fee for each stage of interaction. Out of this fee, 50% (₹250) is paid to the girl, ensuring a fair earning opportunity for her participation. The remaining 50% is used to cover operational costs, marketing, and platform development. This model ensures that: 1. The App is Sustainable: The fee collected helps us maintain the platform, invest in growth, and provide better features for users. 2. Earning Opportunity is Fair and Transparent: The 50-50 revenue split ensures that the earnings are directly tied to participation, keeping it a balanced and equitable structure. Addressing Cultural Sensitivity: You raised an important point about potential societal perceptions. Here’s how we tackle that: • Positioning the App as a Networking Tool: We are marketing this platform as a space for meaningful connections, collaborations, and shared experiences rather than as a “dating app.” The focus is on fostering genuine interactions, which sets us apart from other platforms. • Verified Profiles and Secure Experiences: By implementing stringent profile verification processes, we ensure the safety of our users, adding credibility to the platform. • Public Perception Management: To combat any potential negative associations, we focus on positioning the platform as a professional networking tool that enables people to connect for common interests, skill-building, and collaborations. Practical and Cost-Effective Option: It’s worth noting that in most metropolitan cities, clubs charge anywhere from ₹2,000 to ₹5,000 or even more for entry, which might not guarantee a meaningful experience. In contrast, with just ₹500 on our platform, users get an opportunity to not only save money but also meet and hang out with someone new who shares similar interests. This adds value to the interaction while being cost-effective and accessible to a broader audience. Example to Highlight the Value Proposition: Imagine a scenario where two users connect via the app to attend an event together. The pairing fee of ₹500 ensures that both parties are invested in making the interaction worthwhile. The girl earns ₹250 for her participation, which values her time and effort, while the app retains ₹250 for operational costs. For instance, consider an art enthusiast who is looking for a companion to explore an art exhibit. Instead of going alone, they use the app to find someone with a shared interest. This doesn’t just foster companionship but also encourages people to step out and explore new experiences safely and conveniently. Pricing Rationale: If the fee were too high, it might deter users. On the other hand, a nominal fee (like ₹500) filters out casual users who might not be serious, ensuring a high-quality community. Long-Term Perspective: While there might be occasional comments or misunderstandings, our focus is on building trust and credibility through our marketing, communication, and user experience. Over time, the value proposition will stand out, and societal perceptions will adjust accordingly. In conclusion, while challenges exist, a clear value proposition, fair revenue-sharing model, and strong positioning will address these concerns effectively.

Ok if users are returning because of reason you've said , you will still have a loss , would like to know your revenue model Earning potential wala point that mostly someone's going there for the money , so for paying them you have to make enough money first Amd of its expensive they will leave app as I said before , and also if someone's hanging out with someone stranger just for money wouldn't be seen as a good sign in indian market , it kind of gives a negative view , like she's or he is going to clubs with someone random just for money , like that sounds bizarre and once your app is little popular , and in a group where a person don't a couple so uses your app, of someone passes out this comment , then it will so badly affect and in india like people tend to do these kidd of activities It is not as simple as you think

Thank you for raising this point—it’s an important one. While it’s true that some users may exchange contact information and plan future hangouts outside the app, we’ve factored this into our strategy and designed the app to ensure repeat use. Here’s how: 1. Not Everyone Forms Strong Friendships: While some users might build lasting friendships, many won’t. Some connections may remain casual or fade over time, and these users will return to the app to find new matches or opportunities. 2. Consistent Earning Potential: The app is designed as a platform where users can earn by facilitating experiences or connections. For those motivated by the financial aspect, the incentive to return is high. The app remains a reliable way to make easy money, even for those who’ve already met others. 3. New Customers, New Opportunities: With a steady influx of new users, there’s always fresh demand. Even those who’ve formed connections will be drawn back by the prospect of meeting new people or earning from the growing user base. Ultimately, the app isn’t just a one-time solution—it’s a continuous ecosystem for building connections, earning, and exploring new possibilities. We’re confident this model will keep users coming back.
