Blind Cupid (BC) is a disruptive personal matchmaker that uses systematic philosophy and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help users find their long-term partners with the very first match. It does this by asking its users high-quality, short, and introspective questions that reveal what the company calls a user's ‘Sense of life’. The AI system then comes up with potential matches by analysing the above data along with the user's communication style. BC asserts that the global matchmaking market has 91 million users and is currently worth £4.65 billion (2020) with a projected value of £7.68 billion by 2026. It argues that 4 out of 5 beta users met their potential partner on its portal. The company aims to patent its AI and licence it out to eager organisations. It will use the investment to offer investors the opportunity to be a part of the next generation of matchmaking and artificial intelligence.
