Overview

This representative concept began with a product question: how could onboarding help people understand the experience quickly and choose connections that feel more relevant?

The initial flow relied on manual selections, which created uncertainty about whether each choice reflected a genuine preference or simply a way to see more matches.

We explored a transparent onboarding flow using guided prompts, optional reactions, and clear consent. The concept focused on making preferences easier to express without collecting sensitive signals people did not knowingly provide.

A possible next phase would test richer, opt-in scenarios that help people express preferences in context. Every future interaction would be designed around comfort, accessibility, and explicit user control.

  • VR

Representative concept note: the work focused on clearer onboarding, consent-aware interactions, and a matching experience that respects the people using it.
