We got tired of swiping on strangers.

ThePlaylistDating started as a simple question: what if your favorite songs could introduce you to your next great relationship?

Photo-based apps trained us to judge people in milliseconds. Bios taught us to perform rather than reveal. The result? 200 matches, 10 conversations, 1 mediocre date — and a lingering feeling that we're meeting avatars, not people.

Music is different. The songs you reach for at 2am when you can't sleep, the track that's been on repeat for six weeks, the album that defined a whole year — these aren't performances. They're the truest thing about you.

We built ThePlaylistDating for the people who are done performing. Pick 10 songs. Get matched on what actually matters. Start conversations that go somewhere.
