Our Mission
Finding love is not as simple as it used to be. Between mindless scrolling on dating apps and the persistent fear of approaching people IRL, our society is in a deep love deficit. We're bringing back a relic of the past—good ol' fashion matchmaking but with a modern twist. Our mission is to get everyone a first date. What happens after that is up to you.
How It Works
Unlike dating apps that require constant swiping and disappointment, finding a potential match on TQM is a simple process.
Fill out a form
Help us learn about you by filling out our 30-question questionnaire thoroughly. This is also a good exercise for you to understand yourself and your wants and needs. Incomplete information will be deleted.
Wait for a match
Your profile information will be run through an AI-based algorithm on a daily basis to determine if there are suitable matches for you. Our team will then do our due diligence to ensure both parties are great for each other.
Accept the intro offer
Once our team is confident that both parties are great matches, we will reach out to both parties to ask permission to make an introduction. If you're serious about love, you'd accept the offer.
Arrange a date
Once both parties agree to be introduced, our team will start an email thread to introduce you to your match and provide recommendations for a first date. This is when you'd arrange a date.
Fall in love
Here's the hard part: you have to actually commit. This means getting to know your match, going on several dates (if you like them), and hopefully falling in love. Leave your commitment issues at home.
Tell us about it
We want to know all the tea and deets. If you become a couple, tell us about it so we can tell others and help more people. If things go awry, forget that we ever existed.
FAQs
Here are answers to questions you'll most likely have and we don't want to keep repeating.
Is this only for Queens residents?
Yes and no. We're not enforcing location so technically anyone can sign up. However, we will prioritize residents of Queens, NY. The next priority group is New York City residents (we see you Brooklyn). If you live in Astoria, Oregon, get lost.
How do you find matches?
We use a two-part process. Matches are first made using our AI-based algorithm. After that, our team reviews the information from both parties to ensure a great match. Rest assured, a human will make the ultimate decision on matching and none of your personally indentifiable information is submitted to our algorithm.
How long will it take to get a match?
It could take days, weeks, or months. This is heavily dependent on how many people sign up for TQM over time. If you want to help us match you faster, tell your single friends, family, and coworkers about TQM. The bigger our list, the better.
What if I don't like my match?
If you decide you don't want to go on a first date after we make an introduction, let us know and we'll continue to find matches for you. Once you accept the introduction offer, we mark your information as "MATCHED", so we will not continue to find matches for you unless you tell us otherwise.
Is this really free?
Right now, this is completely free. As far as we're concerned, this is a public service. However, to be candid, we may need to find ways to monetize this experience to "keep the lights on." This may happen in the form of a newsletter with sponsored ads or a small yearly subscription.
Do I need to make my social profiles public?
We don't match people sight unseen. We will need to see photos of both parties before we make a match. Preferably, whatever social media profile you provide will be public. You can also provide a website or LinkedIn profile.
How do you keep my information secure?
Your information is private and will live in a private database that only our team can access with multi-factor authentication. It will never be sold to a third party. If you want your information to be deleted, feel free to reach out to us and we will delete it immediately.
How long do you keep my information?
We keep your information until you tell us to delete it or if you're not responsive when we make an introduction offer. If you don't respond to our introduction offer after three attempts, your information will be deleted.
