A white-label dating app is ready-made dating software that you launch under your own name. You choose the logo, colours, domain and app name. The vendor supplies the code behind matching, messaging, payments and admin tools. That saves months of development, but only if the product fits your bus...

A practical buyer's guide to what each check confirms, where it falls short, and what to ask a vendor before you commit. Almost every vendor you speak with will say their product has a verified badge. That's good to hear, but it tells you very little. A badge is a label, and what counts i...

Most founders don't lose money on dating software because the product is bad. They lose it because they chose for the wrong reasons: the lowest quote, the longest feature list or the most confident sales call.

Dating apps ask people for things they wouldn't hand over to almost anyone else. Sexual orientation, precise location, private messages, sometimes even a face scan for age verification. That's why GDPR compliance for dating apps sits in a different risk category than most consumer software, ...
