About the Company
Coffee Meets Bagel (CMB) is a free dating service that helps members make meaningful connections. It`s designed for busy singles who want to find something real with little or no effort. What makes Coffee Meets Bagel different from other dating apps is our relentless focus on creating meaningful connections. Every day at noon, Coffee Meets Bagel introduces you to one single who is a friend of a friend. You must LIKE or PASS your match (aka "Bagels") within 24 hours. Mutual LIKE leads to a private chat line that expires in 7 days. Our algorithm is key to curating the best match for our members each day. We see the biggest area of opportunity in incorporating social elements in addition to hard data--through members` inputs such as friend recommendations and real-time feedback. Ultimately, we believe that our members do a better job than algorithms at regulating human interactions.
