Problem
Traditional dating applications often lead to superficial interactions and prolonged periods of unanswered messages, commonly referred to as "ghosting." This reliance on text-based communication can hinder the development of genuine connections and create a frustrating user experience.
Solution
Hati is a mobile dating platform that exclusively facilitates voice and video calls for initial interactions between matched users. The application schedules brief, timed calls, thereby bypassing text-based communication and mitigating the issue of ghosting. Post-call feedback mechanisms are integrated to refine matchmaking algorithms and enhance the overall dating experience. This approach prioritizes direct, authentic communication to foster more meaningful connections.
Target Audience
The primary users are individuals seeking genuine connections through direct communication, who are dissatisfied with the superficiality and ghosting prevalent in traditional text-based dating apps.
Features
- Voice and video call-only interface for all initial user interactions.
- Scheduled call functionality with a fixed duration (e.g., 5 minutes) to encourage focused engagement.
- Post-call feedback system for users to indicate interest in a subsequent connection.
- Automated unmatching protocol for users who do not express mutual interest after a call.
- Zero-tolerance policy for no-shows, with temporary account suspension as a consequence.
- User availability management for scheduling interactions.
