Build a profile with real depth
Go far beyond a two-line bio. Sift asks useful follow-up questions and learns about your life in your own words.
AI matchmaking for long-term relationships
Meet Sift.
Dating, slowed down.
Sift gets to know you through conversation, then searches for a match in both directions. Once a week, we introduce one person—only when we believe there is a strong chance you will want to meet.

What the AI changes
Profiles with real depth. Matches with real context.
Sift builds a thorough picture of your values, relationship goals, personality, lifestyle, needs, and preferences—then uses that depth to make better introductions.
Match the whole person
Sift considers your values, goals, lifestyle, needs, and preferences together—not as separate filters.
Look for mutual fit
A match only works if it works for both people. Sift considers both sides before making an introduction.
Know why you’re meeting
Each introduction explains what stood out, giving you useful context before you decide whether to meet.
Visual preference training
Attraction is personal. Sift learns yours.
Rate a set of fictional profile photos based on whether you would consider meeting each person. Sift uses AI to find patterns in your choices—without reducing your taste to height, hair colour, or a rigid checklist.
A tendency, not a rule. Your visual preferences help guide matching while leaving room for chemistry to surprise you.

Private to you
These are fictional people. Your ratings train your preferences—they do not score anyone’s worth.

Sift looks for mutual fit

- 5
Meet your introduction
When the fit looks strong, meet one person and learn why Sift chose them for you.
Slow by design
Matching happens weekly. That’s the point.
If you are used to instant feeds, a weekly cadence may feel unusual. Sift slows things down so it can listen, search carefully, and make fewer, stronger introductions.
- Opt in only when you are ready
- Never match just to fill the week
- Focus on one person, not a waiting feed
A typical weekOne match. Time to see where it goes.

This is a common rhythm, not a deadline. Take the time you need at every step.
You stay in control
Sift suggests. You decide.
AI helps Sift understand you and choose an introduction. It never decides who you should date. You can correct what Sift learned and say yes or no in your own time.
Everyone is identity verified before matching.

Join a weekly search when you are ready and step back when you need time.
A different pace
Most dating apps move fast. Sift waits for a reason.
Most dating apps
- Deliver a constant stream of profiles
- Match from photos and a handful of filters
- Reward more swiping and more conversations
- Leave you to do all the searching
The Sift approach
- Use AI to understand the context
- Search on a clear weekly cadence
- Introduce someone only when the fit looks strong
- Give one person your full attention

Questions and answers
What people ask about Sift.
How the AI works, why matching is weekly, and what happens when Sift finds someone.
What is Sift?
Sift is an AI matchmaker for verified adults who want a long-term, monogamous relationship. It gets to know you through conversation, learns what matters to you, and searches for one person we believe you have a strong chance of wanting to meet.
What does the AI matchmaker do?
Sift uses AI to understand the context behind what you tell it—not just check boxes on a profile. It considers your values, goals, lifestyle, needs, and preferences, looks for a fit that works both ways, and explains why it chose each introduction.
How is a Sift profile different from a typical dating profile?
A Sift profile goes far beyond a two-line bio. Through conversation, Sift learns about your values, relationship goals, lifestyle, personality, needs, preferences, and the kind of life you want to build with someone.
How does Sift learn what I find attractive?
You can rate fictional profile photos based on whether you would consider meeting each person. Sift uses AI to notice patterns in your choices. Those patterns guide matching, but they are not a rigid checklist and nobody receives a public attractiveness score.
Why does matching happen only once a week?
Sift is slow by design. The weekly rhythm gives you time to focus and gives Sift a clear moment to search carefully. You choose whether to join each Match Day, and we never make a weak introduction just to fill the week.
Will I get a match every week?
No. Weekly is the search cadence, not a promise of a match. Sift makes an introduction only when it finds someone it believes you have a strong chance of wanting to meet—and the fit looks strong for them too.
Does AI decide who I should date?
No. Sift decides who to introduce, but you decide whether you want to talk or meet. You can review what Sift has learned, correct anything that is wrong, and keep your requirements firm.
Is everyone on Sift verified?
Yes. Everyone who takes part in matchmaking must complete identity verification. Your government ID is never shown to a match. Verification helps reduce fake accounts, but you should still use the same care you would with any new person.
What information does a match see?
A match sees only the information you approved for your introduction. Sift can use other details to look for compatibility without quoting them to another person.
Can I pause matchmaking?
Yes. You can pause while you are getting to know someone or whenever you want a break. Sift is meant to help you build a relationship, not keep you using the app.
