Breeze has a really cool formula in which you pay exclusively for each date. And a date is organised automatically for each match, without any possibility to chat beforehand.

You still have to match first. So the same swipe left or right but once you match, there is a system that asks when you're free for a date. That's it.

Not exactly, you only have a very limited amount of profiles visible every day. About 4, though maybe it depends on the location. So there is no endless swiping. You also cannot match anyone else until you have set up a date with your last match, and if you opt out too many times (again, probably three or four) your account gets blocked.

In any case, you only pay for dates you go to (unless you cancel at the last moment). Their incentive is to send you to as many dates as possible.

		Coffee Meets Bagels tried that. A few matches at 12PM every day. I think the key problem for dating apps is that 90% of women on it will only match with the top 10% of men. Meanwhile, most men will try to match with anything that has a nose and eyes. I don't think Breeze's concept fixes that since it's still up to the girl to match.

Unless I'm missing something, this sounds awful.

		When was the last time you went on a date with someone new? I ask because it's likely less awful than the current state.

		Why does it? I'm curious. I think it solves most of the issues of the traditional apps. (But yes, I didn't mention a fundamental aspect: they propose you only a very limited amount of profiles each day, no endless swiping: if you don't fancy any of your daily ~4, tough luck, you can come back tomorrow).

How do you verify that they are who the profile says they are without chatting beforehand?

You don't. You go to the date (in a public place, set by the app) and if there's something fishy about them you can report them to the app (there's an explicit feedback request after each date).

If you have to pay per match, then aren't you already out the money at that point? Not to mention the risk of just getting murdered.

		Ooh, you lost $12! And your date did too, and probably the account as well. As for the risk of getting murdered, I think it's unavoidable in any app (and in life in general) but probably worse if you organise the date by yourself.
