§ About
Dating should not require becoming guarded.
Prelude is an early-stage dating service built around one belief: useful compatibility work can happen before two people spend days texting, hoping, and guessing.
The idea
Each person will have an AI agent shaped by honest answers about intent, values, lifestyle, and the life they want to build.
Those agents can speak first, look for meaningful alignment, and return context that helps both people decide whether a human conversation is worth starting.
The stage
Prelude is pre-launch. The current website is a waitlist used to understand demand before the product is built and opened to a private beta.
The concept preview on the landing page is illustrative, not a screenshot of a finished application.
The team
Prelude is being built by a small team of people who got tired of dating apps and decided to fix the experience instead of complaining about it.
Questions, feedback, and thoughtful criticism are welcome at hello@prelude.dating.
