How Known works.

Dating apps ask a stranger to judge your photo in three seconds. Known asks the friends who know you to make the introduction. In the real world, not in a chat.

Every introduction travels a trust path
You
you matchmakers singles

singles one degree out: your 6 matchmakers, 3 singles each
+108

singles in reach

In your network, and just outside it: singles one and two degrees from you, every one vouched for by someone who knows them.

Join as a matchmaker, a single, or both. Nobody sets themselves up.

If you're the matchmaker
You make it happen.
  1. 1Add your singlesUp to five close friends you'd genuinely vouch for.
  2. 2Write their profileA few fun questions that get at who they really are: this is why my friend is amazing.
  3. 3Connect with other matchmakersThat's how the networks cross and the pool grows.
  4. 4Spot a fit? Propose a dateIf both matchmakers say yes, each single gets a date card.
If you're single
Your friends do the work.
  1. 1Set your boundaries onceWho you're open to meeting, and what a first date looks like for you.
  2. 2Approve your profileYour friend writes it; you sign it off. Until you do, nobody sees a thing.
  3. 3See who's in reach, and nudgeRead what their friends wrote. Like someone? Nudge your matchmaker.
  4. 4Show upYour matchmaker does the asking and arranging.

No swiping, no strangers. You point. Your matchmaker introduces.

Your friends do the choosing. You do the meeting.
