Dating apps are not broken by accident. They’re designed to keep you swiping, keep you single, and keep you paying. After three years working as a professional matchmaker in Austin, Texas with high-net-worth clients, Strickland watched this play out up close: smart, accomplished singles cycling through app after app, more burned out and more disconnected with every passing year. She believes this is not just a personal problem. It’s a societal one.

“We’re more digitally connected than ever, yet more emotionally disconnected than ever. Dating apps profit by keeping you single. I think it’s ruining society — and I want to be the change the world needs.”

So she built Matchmaker AI.

Compatibility Science, Not Swiping

Where competitors like Tawkify and Kelleher rely on human matchmakers at premium price points, and apps like Hinge and The League still default to profile browsing and algorithmic swiping, Matchmaker AI takes a fundamentally different approach. Every match is built on a multi-framework compatibility model — Enneagram, attachment style, Myers-Briggs, love languages, conflict resolution, and sexual blueprint. These are the frameworks couples typically discover in couples counseling. Matchmaker AI puts them to work before the first date.

“If you can’t tell me your Enneagram, your attachment style, your love language, you’re not ready — yet. That’s exactly what we’ll teach you. And it’s actually fun.”

Verified Members. Real Standards.

Matchmaker AI requires every member to pass a background check and income verification before joining. Men must meet a minimum income threshold of $100,000. Women are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. This isn’t gatekeeping — it’s curation. Financial security is a real pillar of long-term partnership, and the platform is designed to reflect that reality honestly rather than pretend it doesn’t exist.

After every date, members receive an accountability check-in from their AI matchmaker. Ghosting is eliminated. Bad actors are removed immediately. The community holds itself to a standard that no dating app has ever been willing to enforce.

AI Jess: The World’s First Empathetic AI Matchmaker

The platform’s most groundbreaking innovation is AI Jess — a voice model cloned from Jessica Strickland’s own voice and personality using Hume AI’s empathetic voice technology. AI Jess is kind, honest, supportive, and warm. She’s available every day to coach members through their dating journey, help them understand their own patterns, and deliver post-date feedback with the sensitivity of a trusted friend — not a chatbot.

No other matchmaking platform, traditional or tech-enabled, offers anything like it.

A Mission Bigger Than Matching

Strickland came to this work the hard way: three years on the front lines of Austin’s dating scene, working with high-net-worth clients who had everything except a partner worth keeping. She built the technology she wished existed. She’ll be using it herself to find her person. Follow her journey on Instagram and connect with her on LinkedIn.

“I built this because I believe dating should be a self-discovery journey, not a dopamine loop. The world deserves better than what the apps are giving us.”
