# MeAndWho Club

> MeAndWho Club is an AI-assisted matchmaker for verified adults in Bengaluru who want a serious relationship. Instead of swiping, you answer a short set of questions and, if you like, talk with an AI matchmaker about what matters to you. During our pilot a person checks every introduction before it reaches you, and a chat opens only when you both say yes.

Status: not yet open; launching first in Bengaluru on Android, with iPhone later. Contact: ami@amrikinnovates.io. Operator: Amrik Innovates (OPC) Private Limited, India. Facts last checked: 2026-11-15.

Key facts:

- MeAndWho Club is an AI-assisted matchmaker for verified adults (18+) in Bengaluru who want a serious, committed relationship.
- MeAndWho Club is not yet in any app store: it opens first in Bengaluru on Android through Google Play, with iPhone later, and there is no fixed launch date.
- MeAndWho Club is for adults of every gender and orientation: members choose Woman, Man or Non-binary or describe their gender, choose who they want to meet, and are introduced only when both people are looking for each other.
- There is no feed, swiping or profile search: members answer a short set of questions (only 4 are required), and an introduction is suggested only when someone fits what both people want.
- Every member passes a phone check with a one-time code and a live selfie check of about 20 seconds, one face can hold only one account, and at least one of their photos must match the selfie.
- The selfie video is not kept; a face pattern (numbers, not a photo) is kept to stop duplicate accounts until the member withdraws that consent or deletes the account.
- Verification shows that a member is a real person with one account; it says nothing about how they will behave, and no criminal background checks are done.
- An optional ID badge through DigiLocker is built but not yet switched on, and the Aadhaar number and document are never stored.
- The AI matchmaker (Claude, made by Anthropic) asks optional follow-up questions, suggests profile notes that the member confirms, edits or deletes, writes the plain-language reason for each introduction and suggests first-date ideas after a mutual yes.
- The AI conversation and the ChatGPT import are optional, but “AI help with your profile” is one of the consents needed to join, and the AI writes the note on every introduction from the answers both people chose to share.
- Match scores are calculated by fixed rules from each member’s own answers, in both directions, so the AI does not compute the score or decide who meets whom.
- An introduction is proposed only when both people pass each other’s firm filters (who they want to meet, age range and at most 3 dealbreakers each), their combined score clears a minimum, and each is in the other’s top 5 (a current setting).
- During the pilot, a person reviews and approves every introduction before it reaches a member, and every decision is recorded.
- A chat opens only when both people say “Yes, introduce us”, and nobody is ever shown who declined.
- There is no fixed schedule: a member gets at most 3 new introductions a week and at most 2 waiting at once, with 7 days to answer each (current settings).
- The AI never chats as or for a member; names, phone numbers, photos, face patterns and ID details are never sent to it, and neither are answers about gender, who someone wants to meet, religion or caste.
- Members see what they told MeAndWho Club separately from what the AI understood, and an AI note is never used until the member confirms it.
- Every shareable answer stays off the introduction card until the member turns it on, and gender, who someone wants to meet, religion, caste and area of Bengaluru never appear on it.
- Conversations with the AI matchmaker are deleted when they end unless the member turns on “Remember my AI conversations”, and lock-screen notifications never show names or message text.
- The database, photos, face patterns and logs are stored on Amazon Web Services in India (Mumbai, with backups in Hyderabad), the website is hosted by Vercel, which may serve it from outside India, while AI requests (Anthropic), sign-in codes (Google Firebase) and push notifications (Expo) are currently processed outside India.
- Joining is free, and a paid membership (monthly or every 3 months, through the app store, price not yet final) is offered only once at least 15 suitable, verified people are looking for someone like the member, with introductions free for 14 more days after that first offer (current settings).
- Membership pays for the matchmaking service, not an outcome, so there are no refunds when no introduction happens, and pausing stops new introductions but not billing.
- MeAndWho Club can’t promise a match, a date or a relationship.
- Members can report or block from any introduction or chat; every report is acknowledged at once, with a 7-day target to close it, and the most serious reports suspend the other account straight away, with a 12-hour target for a person to review them.
- MeAndWho Club is run by Amrik Innovates (OPC) Private Limited, based in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India.
- Contact: ami@amrikinnovates.io; a Grievance Officer is named in the app and aims to respond within 7 days.
