The Catch
Women-First Social Game App
The Catch is a female-centric dating game app. The Catch is a cross between “The Dating Game” and “The Bachelorette.” It’s a unique game in which one woman invites a small group of men to compete for a date. Through successive question and answer rounds, the woman narrows the pool of male contestants based on her satisfaction with their replies. The male contestant with the most compatible responses earns an in-person date.
Women enjoy freedom and privacy – they ask questions that matter while remaining invisible to men whom they are not interested in. For their part, men are eager to compete because they have a one-in-four chance in lieu of sending out a hundred messages.
We’ve validated our value proposition through our private beta launch Valentine’s Day 2015 to San Francisco, and are excited to launch our iOS app to additional markets Summer 2015.
