Hey Product Hunt👋! We’re excited for you all to check out Filter Off, the video speed dating! The app has been featured on The New York Times as well as the BBC. *WHY WE BUILT FILTER OFF* We grew tired of dating apps and the amount of time it took to swipe and finally meet other singles. We decided to build Filter Off to streamline the dating process making an efficient and authentic dating experience. *OUR FEATURES* With our latest version, you can join virtual public and private events. Our events have included Black Singles, Runner Lovers, LA Date Night, Jewish Singles, and many more. We also offer a free matchmaking service that sets you up on curated dates based on your preferences (age, gender interest, religion, ethnicity, and many more preferences to come). *WHAT’S TO COME* Here are a few features in the pipe: feature-rich gender based dating, additional preferences for matchmaker, in-app games, etc. We invite you to check us out and let us know what you think! -Zach & Bavitha

So how is this different than Tinder, Bumble etc. exactly?

@msimonson19 thanks for your question. Filter Off is a video first dating app. Bumble recently introduced video post-match and Tinder plans to later this year. However, post match video is VERY different than video first. Video first is a new paradigm of online dating. You don’t artificially judge people on their profile picture, but rather the interaction and the vibe you get while video chatting. We truly believe that video-first offers the best way to online date. Many of our users have shared that they do their makeup beforehand and bring a glass of wine on their “date”. With traditional swipe apps it’s become more of a habitual routine. With Filter Off it’s an experience.

@msimonson19 Thanks for the question! Apart from what Zach mentioned about moving away from the superficiality of the swipe apps (which is paramount), our themed Events is a great way for our users to really connect with others with shared interests. One of the new events that we are going to launch is the Book Lovers speed dating series. Attending the event means you get back to back dates with fellow book lovers that meet your dating criteria. How amazing is that? A few other themed events we've done in the past are Runner Lovers, city based events, community/ethnicity based events etc. Our Events product is something that's very novel to Filter Off.

@davidyap Scheduling is the worst! And it gets even better when the other person drops off the face of the earth. None of that. NO MORE! 💃

Great idea! And great timing, with a lot of people still staying at home !

@marion_ca yes, with such unfortunate events it is great timing. We actually started working on Filter Off pre-Covid since we believe video-first dating is the most authentic and efficient way to date! With that being said, the pandemic definitely sped up the cultural acceptance of video by 3-5 years.

@marion_ca yesss. And unfortunately, staying home is something that we'll have to do for the foreseeable future 😪 The Events product that we offer is a great way to meet several people back to back in one night - and with each date being just 90 seconds, it's not a huge time sink.

Great idea!!! Does this mean I cant use my high school pic any more? ;-) was thinking of doing something like this with the domain I bought, calamity.club , but more towards humor and entertainment. I did speed dating many years ago and this is like at home speed dating, grab a margarita and put your feet up.
