Betterhalf

Betterhalf serves a single purpose - create a secure place for the individuals who are #LookingToSettle and willing to #TakeTheCharge to find a compatible life partner of their own choice, at their own pace; without direct involvement of parents. In short, we are on a mission to redefine the arranged marriage way of matchmaking in India. What makes us different? 👀 We offer users the world's fastest matching in a single click.

The US patented technology is faster than dating apps and more accurate than matrimonial sites, thereby providing a quick turnaround time to find a potential and compatible match. This technology predicts religion, language, salary insights, community, partner preferences, and behavioral traits of users in a single click. Moreover, it onboards users in a few seconds compared to a 20-min wait in traditional matrimonial sites and then matches them with potential profiles.

The emphasis is on providing verified matches in the virtual world by authenticating the profiles through – Facebook, personal email, phone number, selfie verification, and government ID. Besides, the feature of providing feedback by users filters out non-serious daters from the platform. We take pride to get matches for a premium pool of independent professionals from more than 25,000 companies in India including Google, Amazon, Facebook, LinkedIn, Adobe, and Accenture to name a few.

Our backbone 💪🏼 Backed by Y Combinator, we were able to raise $3M as part of its pre-Series A funding in April 2021. The funding saw the participation of venture capital firms including S2 Capital, Quiet Capital, and marquee angel investors like Kunal Shah and Samvit Ramadurgam. The aim is to utilize the recently raised $3M in boosting user engagement on the app, adding monetization features, and increasing product discovery across organic channels.
