Blink, The Future of Online Dating, Prepares for Launch of Virtual Blind Speed Dating Platform

LOS ANGELES - Oct. 5, 2020 - PRLog -- Blink, a new virtual blind speed dating platform and female-founded company launching this fall in LA, is expected to change the nature of online dating for good. Fostering an environment where real, genuine conversations and connections flourish, Blink is tearing down the traditional "swipe" culture of online dating with a fun and innovative approach. While the concept of speed dating has existed for years, Blink is the first platform to bring the concept full circle and into the 21st century.

Unlocking the future of online dating, Blink matches members via a two-step process - the Blink Date and photo Glances. Blink pairs members based on their submitted availability for a 10 minute virtual, blind speed date - the Blink Date. A date that happens as quickly as a "blink," the experience is genuine and blind, with members unable to see information or photos of the member they paired with prior to the date. Aiming to strip away the endless swiping, snap judgments, and superficiality of first impressions based on photos, Blink removes the initial focus from physical characteristics and facilitates a quick social interaction where members can ask real questions, have real conversations, and build real connections. Recognizing love is not totally blind, a unique Glances feature gives members the ability to see a single photo of their potential match. A match is made only when members give positive feedback on both the Blink Date and Glance.

Taking a new approach to online dating, Blink will create a high-quality dating experience and empower those who have tried it all and have yet to find the one through other dating platforms. Recognizing how much more powerful relationships can be if they start off with chemistry through conversation, Taly Matiteyahu and Whitney Beard, two tech-savvy entrepreneurs, co-founded Blink as a market solution that ditches the struggle of creating a neatly packaged, curated dating profile. Instead, Blink facilitates real connections by empowering members to embrace vulnerability and avoid the superficial first impressions that accompany swiping on traditional dating apps.

Coming in Fall 2020 to the Greater Los Angeles, California area, Blink is currently filling its waitlist for this exciting new app dating experience. After the Greater Los Angeles launch, Blink plans to expand to other metropolitan centers and empower even more people with the future of online dating.  To get on the waitlist and learn more, visit https://www.theblinkdate.com.
