Yeah, so we have a premium model.
You can use the app for free.
We give you a limited number of 10 likes a day.
Once you exhaust them, you can buy a premium subscription in the app that can accelerate your search.
So that's kind of how we make money.
Yeah, similar to Tinder.
Interestingly, we were doing this well before Tinder was actually doing this in terms of limiting their likes.
Because Tinder for the longest time had unlimited likes.
And they realized that model kind of broke down, which is what would happen is guys would sit there and hit like, like, like on every single female that they saw.
Kind of trying to maximize their chances and the quality of the matches really dips.
And we knew this up front.
So when we started, we actually didn't even monetize in the beginning.
All we had was you give out 10 likes a day and that was it.
I mean, you come back the next day and your likes were fresh.
And then we had enough money.
pull from our users and enough kind of feedback to say, Hey, look, we're willing to pay you money.
Um, just give us more likes.
And then we, then the idea came to start monetizing this.
And we, we started monetizing this very early on.
