The dominant social technologies of the past decade have failed us; most actively make our lives worse. The primary use of tech breakthroughs has been extractive—not to create real value for users. It’s time for a change.
Marriage Pact is applying relationship science and AI to serve genuine, meaningful relationships.
We started with a matching event at Stanford, and it caught on quickly—our annual tradition has grown to 350,000 users across 83 colleges. That gave us some unique insight into how delightful and explosively viral social experiences work.
We’re using that insight to design social experiences for the future from the ground up. What would our tools for socializing, dating, and self-reflection look like if they were designed natively for AI, and gave us the full power of our data?
Our earliest experiments aimed at proving or disproving components of our thesis, but we kept re-proving it—like growing 15% day/day for a month, or seeing 100,000 weekly active users, or 50% d30 retention, in some of our earliest iterations. Now, we’re experimenting further to put it all together.
We believe our work should enable new experiences—not just do the old thing at a larger scale or slightly better. We have some promising traction, although it’s still early. At any point, we could fail. But if we succeed, this could be one of the biggest companies in consumer social.
Finally, we’re proud of the way we work: with a small team of extremely competent designers, engineers, and scientists. Want to be part?

The bedrock of great relationships is compatible values. Our values are at the core of who we are and how we do things. They can be a bedrock for your working relationship with anyone on the team.
Here are our core values at a glance. They’re not in priority order—simply in an order meant to follow their natural place in the creative process.
