Matchmaking that only wins when you do.

NexSpark is AI-assisted matchmaking for people done with dating apps. One quiz, a few genuinely compatible introductions, reviewed by a real matchmaker — and we earn a one-time fee only when two people both choose to connect.

Enter the data room

The problem

The incentive at the heart of dating apps runs against the user.

Misaligned by design

Apps earn on engagement — swiping and subscriptions. A lasting relationship is, to them, churn. So the product is built to keep you single.

Fatigue & distrust

Endless swiping, low-quality matches, bots and catfishing. A growing cohort of serious daters has simply quit — with no good alternative.

Matchmaking is elite-only

Traditional matchmaking solves quality but costs $5k–$50k+ upfront, is fully manual, and doesn't scale.

The solution

The quality and trust of matchmaking, at a fraction of the cost — made scalable by AI.

One quiz, real matches

Members answer thoughtful questions; AI compares them across compatibility dimensions; a real matchmaker reviews every introduction. No feed, no swiping.

Trust built in

Identity- and age-verified members, anonymous until both choose to connect, and we never sell member data.

Aligned incentives

Free to join and get matched during launch. A one-time $599 connection fee — charged only when two people both opt in to meet.

A compounding data moat

Every introduction generates outcome data — who accepts, who declines and why, how the dates actually go — that trains the matching engine. Swipe apps optimize for engagement; our data optimizes for relationships that last, and no one else is collecting it. It compounds with local member density and is the hardest advantage to copy.

How it works — from quiz to a real match

A free, shareable quiz returns an instant ideal-match result. The same answers become the member's profile — then AI plus a real matchmaker turn that into genuine introductions.

1 · Quiz

A free, 2-minute quiz — no login. Values, lifestyle, goals, and dealbreakers, in plain language.

2 · Archetype

Instant ideal-match result (one of eight archetypes) — a useful, shareable read of who fits them and why.

3 · Profile

Those same answers are the profile. Create an account, verify identity and age — onboarding is the quiz, not a second form.

4 · Match

AI finds compatible people; a real matchmaker reviews and approves every introduction. Anonymous until both opt in.

What they value

Loyalty and building something lasting, with faith part of daily life — held as close as you hold it.

How they complement you

You bring the plan and the drive; they bring the warmth and spontaneity — the one who pulls you out of the spreadsheet and into the moment.

Green flags to look for 💚

  • They light up a room and pull you into it
  • Warm without being performative
  • They remember the small things you mention once

A note from your matchmaker

"I sent this because what you each said matters most lines up almost exactly — family, faith, a real partnership. You also balance each other: you plan, they bring spontaneity. I have a good feeling about this one." — Priya

Why you fit

Core values — Highly aligned. Family and faith in both your top three; honesty non-negotiable for you both.

✓ Dealbreaker check — you each meet the other's must-haves

Illustrative samples. Members never see numbers — only honest bands. The real match report stays fully anonymized until both people choose to connect, and a separate internal brief gives the matchmaker the detail to review and approve each introduction.

Distribution is built into the product

The free archetype result is genuinely fun to share — so the product's most delightful moment doubles as its acquisition channel. Every result is a public page a member can post in one tap, and everyone who opens it lands on their own free quiz. The loop turns happy quiz-takers into the next cohort of verified members — at no paid acquisition cost.

Shareable by design

Every quiz result is its own public link with one-tap sharing to X, Facebook, and WhatsApp — built into the reveal, not bolted on. People share an identity result the way they share a personality quiz, because it says something about them.

Warm traffic, zero CAC

Each share is a personal endorsement that drops a friend straight onto their own 2-minute quiz — the highest-intent top of funnel there is. Acquisition happens at the moment of delight, not through paid ads.

Quiz-taker → verified member

Because the quiz is the onboarding, a shared link doesn't just drive a visit — it starts a profile. The viral loop feeds directly into the matchable pool.

It compounds with density

Sharing is inherently local — friends live in the same city. So organic reach concentrates exactly where we need member density, reinforcing the local network effect city by city.

Market & why now

App fatigue is mainstream, AI finally makes quality matching scalable, and demand for safe, verified dating is rising.

A large, paid category

Online dating and matchmaking is a multi-billion-dollar market where people already pay monthly — yet satisfaction keeps falling. We convert that spend into outcomes, not engagement.

The app-fatigued majority

Our wedge is the serious, relationship-minded daters actively leaving the swipe apps — an underserved, high-intent segment.

City by city

We win Atlanta first, build real member density, then replicate the playbook market by market.

Detailed market sizing and our segment model are shared with interested investors — ask the assistant or request the data room.

Business model

No subscription. No upfront retainer. Revenue tied directly to a wanted outcome.

$599

One-time connection fee, charged only when two members both choose to connect.

$0

Free to join and get matched during launch — removing signup friction while we build density.

Aligned economics

We earn on successful connections, not screen time — so growth and member happiness point the same direction. Detailed unit economics are in the investor data room.

Traction

Built and launching in Atlanta — these figures are live from the platform.

Product is built

Member app, matchmaker/admin console, one-quiz onboarding, identity + age verification, and secure auth with 2FA — all working.

AI matching live

An AI engine ranks compatibility with a human matchmaker reviewing every introduction — the core of the model is operational, not a mockup.

Launching Atlanta-first

Early-access capture, content, and local go-to-market are underway. Current traction figures are shared directly.

Team

Built by an operator who set out to flip the industry's incentives.

Matthew Firth — Founder

Roughly 30 years building software. Founded NexSpark to align a dating business with the user's actual outcome — a relationship — instead of their screen time.

Team & advisors

Supported by matchmaking and engineering talent, with advisor and hiring details shared with interested investors.

The raise

We're raising to launch and scale NexSpark, starting in Atlanta.

What the funding does

Builds the Atlanta matchmaking operation, drives local member growth to critical density, and extends the product and verification — the inputs that turn the model into revenue.

Round details

Raising $2M total — a $1M seed plus a $1M Year-2 follow-on. NexSpark is a Georgia LLC today, converting to a Delaware C-corporation at the priced round. Structure and valuation are discussed on a call.

Why now

The product works, the incentive story resonates, and the app-fatigue tailwind is real. Capital converts that into market density.
