Such a complex time to meet people > one has to come up with a framework to choose one (or two) of the 20+ dating apps available in India.

What& #39;s interesting is that on the supply side - The brands have established themselves on a scale of intent - casual encounters to serious relationships - so you know where to go for what!

#JTBD framework at its best

Each of these buckets have 2/3 apps with one clear market leader - Tinder, Bumble & http://Matrimony.com"> http://Matrimony.com 
Tinder is the top app people pay for in India> jst ahead of Netflix! So, while India consumes videos extensively, we pay more to socialize with a curated set of people.

Whereas, on the demand side - men and women exhibit very different behavior on the apps - women are more selective (like 1 in 13 profiles acc to TrulyMadly& #39;s stat, men > 10 in 13 profiles.) Women often want to explore a relationship, men lesser so.

So, what& #39;s the hack?
(1) Establish more trust with women - features (Bumble), more decision making power and firewall. Bumble& #39;s ratio is merely at 30%
(2) A well defined & #39;brand key& #39;
(3) Penalizing (like your Uber rating) for poor behavior
All thoughts / expertiments they& #39;ve run!

(White) space/s that haven& #39;t scaled:
(1) Tier 2 / Tier 3 - Vernacular app + Secure / non-judgemental ecosystem
(2) Platonic friendships to help mental health
(3) Coffee to pick your brains - business networking

The End.
