NearMatch is a dating app built the way dating apps should have been built from day one — real verification, real moderation, and a real backend behind every swipe.
Built on a real backend, not a prototype — every feature below runs on live infrastructure today.
A candidate feed that excludes people you've already swiped on or matched with, so you always see someone new.
Matches are created server-side the moment two people like each other — never faked, never client-controlled.
Messages land instantly over a live connection, not a refresh-and-hope polling loop.
Upload an actual photo or pick an avatar — profiles are backed by real storage, not placeholder data.
An optional selfie check estimates age via a dedicated face-detection service and adds a visible Verified badge.
Every profile and conversation has a safety menu — blocking is enforced at the database level, not just the UI.
Sign up with email, confirm it, and confirm you're 18 or older.
Add a photo or pick an avatar, write a bio, choose your interests.
Browse real nearby profiles and like the ones you're interested in.
When it's mutual, start chatting instantly — no extra steps.
Most of the engineering effort in NearMatch went into the parts you never see directly.
Every signup requires an affirmative, timestamped 18+ confirmation — recorded, not assumed.
A face-detection check estimates age conservatively and only confirms a badge when it clears a safety margin above 18. The photo is never stored.
Blocking isn't just a UI filter — it's checked at the database level for matching and messaging, so a blocked pair can't reconnect through any path.
Report inappropriate photos, harassment, fake profiles, or spam directly from any profile or conversation.
Swipes, messages, and payment orders are throttled server-side, making large-scale spam or scraping impractical.
