Hi, I am Chakri(Chakravarti), a medical doctor by profession. My interest lies in improving relations between young men and women.
I realised that in today's fast-paced world,there is no time for people to spend time with each other in real-world.Most of the romantic hook-ups occur online through dating apps and 99% of the time there are fake profiles and hence the end result for someone looking genuinely for love and long-term relationship is disastrous.
My startup " REFRESH YOUR LOVE(RYL)" would like to change this scenario and make it more transparent and productive in forming a long lasting,genuine and trustworthy relationships.
Most of the time dating(Guy asking a girl out) happens over a cup of coffee .Hence, i am going to use this scenario in my dating app.
My app is a hybrid one. It has a blend of both online and real-world meetups.Users Intially signup and upload their profiles(photos to be uploaded compulsorily) through the app. Then they match with their prospective romantic partners.
After having some candid conversation and if they want to furthur deepen their relationship, they can do so by meeting over a cup of coffee.
It is here i would like to have colloboration with STAR BUCKS coffee house. Prospective romantic couples, who are genuinely interested to deepen their relationship would meetup at one of the nearest starbucks coffee house and have some open and candid conversation.
This model of dating serves 2 purposes.
1. People here are real. fake profiles get filtered out as they cant change their profile picture once uploaded and the same person is going to meet him/her at the starbucks coffee house.
2. It brings in more customers for starbucks and hence its a win-win situation for both my dating app and starbucks.
