    Hi HN

    I’ve been building NextMatchDating, a dating app centered around short, live 5-minute video conversations instead of endless swiping and texting.

    The idea came from noticing how much time people spend chatting without ever meeting — and how often conversations just fade out.

    How it works:

    You’re matched and immediately enter a live video date

    The date lasts 5 minutes

    After 90 seconds, a “Next” button activates so you’re not stuck if there’s no chemistry

    When the timer ends, both people choose Yes or No

    If both say Yes, it’s a match

    The goal is to:

    Reduce ghosting

    Reduce swipe fatigue

    Make dating feel more human

    Tech stack:

    Flutter (web + mobile direction)

    Agora for video call.

    Supabase backend

    OpenAI for profile Embedding.

    It’s still early and I’m actively iterating.

    Would love feedback — especially on:

    The 5-minute constraint

    The 90-second early exit

    Any obvious UX friction

    Happy to answer technical or product questions.
