Bumble, BMBL, CEO has said that they are planning an AI-powered matchmaking app

Bumble founder and CEO Whitney Wolfe Herd envisions a future where artificial intelligence plays the role of a “dating concierge,” guiding users through the process of building connections. She says AI will not only support tasks like improving communication and filtering matches, but may eventually interact with other AIs on a person’s behalf to narrow down compatible partners.

Bumble has already incorporated AI into its platform with tools such as profile verification and smarter match recommendations. Now, the company is developing a separate app that will focus on deeper, more intentional relationships, drawing on attachment theory to help users form healthier connections with less stress.

How AI Could Reshape Dating

AI dating concierges: These systems would serve as coaches, identifying user insecurities, offering relationship advice, and suggesting healthier ways to communicate.
AI-on-AI interactions: Future scenarios may involve AI concierges directly “talking” to one another, comparing user preferences and compatibility to present people with a handful of strong potential matches.
Attachment-based profiles: Bumble’s upcoming app will create more detailed profiles that take into account emotional preferences and relationship history, with the goal of fostering more meaningful bonds.

Benefits for Users

Lower stress and effort: By filtering out less suitable matches, AI can make the process of finding someone more efficient and less overwhelming.
Greater self-awareness: AI guidance could help individuals better understand their own relationship needs and patterns.
Stronger connections: Bumble’s ultimate goal is to use AI not as a replacement for human interaction, but as a tool to help people build healthier, more balanced, and more genuine relationships.
