Facebook Dating is adding two new features to make it easier for users to find matches on the platform. Meta's dating experience, available within the Facebook platform, was launched in 2019 in select countries. It functions similarly to other dating apps, where users can swipe through other users' profiles to either match with them or reject them. On Monday, the company announced a new artificial intelligence (AI) assistant for the platform that can find tailored profiles based on user prompts. A blind date-style Meet Cute feature has also been added.

Facebook Dating Makes AI the Matchmaker

In a newsroom post, the tech giant announced and detailed the two new features. The post mentioned that these features were envisioned to remove the frustration that comes from endlessly swiping on the platform to find a suitable match. The first addition, the AI assistant, does that by finding potential candidates that match the requirements of a user.

The Dating-focused AI assistant is available as a chat partner within the Conversations menu. Just like users talk to a matched user, they can chat with the AI. Facebook says users can write a prompt, such as “find me a guy in tech who also likes concerts,” and the AI assistant will find a user that fits the bill. The tool can also be used to ask about first date ideas and similar topics. Notably, the AI assistant is currently only available in Canada and the US.

Facebook Wants You to Poke Your Friends in 2025

Meet Cute is the second new feature. It is a blind date-style feature, which automatically matches the user with a “surprise match” that users can immediately begin to chat with. It is an opt-in feature, and once selected, it uses the company's proprietary matching algorithm to find matches. Users will have the choice to pass on a conversation. Meet Cute offers a new surprise match every week.

Facebook Dating was first launched in the US, Canada, and 18 other countries in 2019. The experience is available within the Facebook app and website. However, the dating profile is kept private, and the user's friends are not informed about it. Only those above the age of 18 can create a dating profile. It is not available in India.
