Here's exactly how
Findin works
Six steps from signup to a real connection. No algorithms deciding for you. No endless swiping. No photo pressure.
Build your Dating CV
Sign up and create your Findin profile. This includes a mandatory user-written bio, your interests, what you are looking for in a relationship, and your Dating CV — a structured personal story covering your background, values and relationship goals. Your photo is uploaded but stays blurred.
Think of your Dating CV as a résumé for who you are as a person. It shows depth — not just what you look like on a good day.
Discover openings near you
Browse people who are open to connecting near you. You see their bios, interests and Dating CVs. Photos are blurred — just like yours. You are comparing personalities, not photos.
Discovery is based on compatibility signals — shared interests, life goals and location — not an algorithm that optimises for time-on-app.
Send a connection request
When you find someone interesting, send a connection request. They receive your full Dating CV alongside your request. They decide whether to accept based on who you are.
No swiping. No instant matches. Every request comes with your story attached, so the other person has real information to decide with.
It's a match — start the interview
If they accept your request, you're matched. You get a 72-hour interview window. Photos are still blurred. This is intentional — the conversation comes before the judgement.
The 72-hour window has a progress bar. It fills based on balanced messages from both sides. Neither person can game it alone — it only advances when both participate.
Complete the interview round
Chat naturally. The progress bar fills as the conversation grows from both sides. When it reaches 100%, either person can tap 'Move Forward'.
If only one person is contributing, the bar barely moves. This design quietly filters out low-effort connections before they become a problem.
Reveal photos — together
Photos reveal when both people tap 'Move Forward'. Not before. The reveal is simultaneous — you both see each other at the same moment. No asymmetry, no exposure without consent.
You have already talked. You already like this person. The photo reveal is the moment a connection becomes real — not the beginning of one.
