TECHROUND.CO.UK – ToDate is a same-day dating app that allows people to go on dates with others who have mutual interests and are free at the same time.
Q: What inspired you to create the company?
A: I felt that the existing apps in the market had people spending too much time on their phones and attract too many time wasters.
Q: What makes ToDate different?
A: We're all about streamlining dating processes. Our matches disappear at the end of the day to prevent the process being dragged out – it is all about getting out there and meeting people on dates you want to go on.
Q: What safeguards do you have in place to protect users?
A: Each user is fully ID verified.ToDate also uses facial recognition software to eliminate catfishing.
Q: What lessons have you learned during your journey?
A: To be patient and that things aren't going to turn out how you planned from the start, for better and for worse.
Q: What advice would you offer other entrepreneurs?
A: Not to take things too personally. Not everyone is going to like your product or service and people are going to criticise you along the way for trying to start something from scratch.
Q: Where do you see the company in the next five years?
A: Hopefully, ToDate can be a global force in 5 years time, setting the standard for same-day dating and safety.
