Step 1
When you sign up, we first try to get to know you. This helps us create your profile and match you.
We're pretty excited you're here and we want to get to know you.
Step 2
Each week, you're paired with a new stranger and get a little glimpse of who they are.
This week, you've been matched with someone who:
- is 48 and an ER nurse in Philadelphia
- once drove 6 hours for a sandwich
- has married the same person twice
They'll be your partner for the week.
Step 3
Through the week, we guide you through three creative prompts. For each one, you'll have 24 hours to reply.
Monday 9:00 AM
Today's Prompt:
Bob Marley once said "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain." Tell us about a song that's helped you process something hard in your life.
Reply within 24 hours to receive a response.
Step 4
We review responses to try to keep things thoughtful and safe from a quality perspective.
Blah blah, just give me theirs.
Hmm, this doesn't seem like it answers the prompt. Can you try again?
Step 5
We send you their response. If your match didn't reply, we'll still send you something meaningful.
Tuesday 9:00 AM
Here's your match's response:
I was 21 the first time I saw a patient die on my shift. You could just tell that they were a good person. She kept thanking me for small things like bringing her water. I was numb and I kept listening to this song on repeat. It helped.
Step 6
At the end of the week, you can choose to connect for real. We'll only share contact information if you both agree.
Friday 9:00 AM
That's it for this week. Want to share your contact if they feel the same?
Step 7
Then we do it again!
Saturday 11:00 AM
We'll be back tomorrow with next week's match.
Other people make us better.
And I wanted a different way to meet and feel connected to them. Social media can be overwhelming and addictive and demanding. This is my attempt at creating something that feels spontaneous and light but also impactful.
If you have ideas on how to make this better, please do send me feedback. I would be grateful.
How much does it cost?
There's a 14 day free trial to start. After that, you will be charged $5 a month and you can cancel anytime.
How do I get matched?
You are always matched with a real person who also signed up. We try to match you with someone who has different perspectives but shared interests. We also try to vary your match as often as possible.
What if my match doesn't reply?
We'll always be transparent if your match didn't reply but we'll still send you something meaningful. Often, it will be a thoughtful response from another member. You'll never be left hanging.
Is my information private?
Yes. Your personal details and phone number are stored securely and only used to run this experience. We never sell your data or share it without your explicit consent.
How do I cancel?
You can text STOP anytime to trigger the cancellation flow. Or you can email us at support@rithikaisafool.com requesting to cancel.
I have more questions. What can I do?
Email support@rithikaisafool.com. We'll try to get back to you as soon as we can.
