Launched in 2018, DateID is a US-based technology company that gives online dating users a fast, easy and effective way to screen dates before agreeing to meet. In a survey of over 470 online dating users, DateID found that 95% of people Google each other before meeting in order to avoid bad actors–and worse first dates. The problem is, even the best online sleuthing can’t always catch everything. DateID scours the web for critical information on online dating users and uses AI to build data-rich profiles that are compiled in a searchable database. DateID also empowers legitimate online daters to shine: verified users can curate their profiles, and receive watermarked photos for use on dating sites. DateID is on a mission to bring security, transparency and accountability to online dating.
