""With the format of existing dating apps, the intention is lowering the barrier to entry and improving access, allowing for introverts to meet a bunch of people easily. Those intentions were really good at the beginning, but based on the way those apps have evolved, I think it's become a very monotonous thing, and people are suffering from burnout because there's a loss of authenticity.""
""We learned that through our own experience - we're just like, this can't be it. We didn't learn that people are frustrated through user calls or interviews or any of that.""
Sonder was created by four founders frustrated with traditional dating apps that felt monotonous and unoriginal. They aimed to design an app that resembles a mood board rather than a job application. The app encourages creativity in profiles and offers quirky in-person events to foster connections. Sonder caters to both platonic and romantic relationships, making social interactions less intimidating and more enjoyable for users seeking authenticity in their connections.
