How is GEMI different from Bumble BFF or dating apps?+
GEMI matches groups of 3–5 people based on chemistry, not 1-on-1 based on photos. There's no swiping, no ghosting, and no dating-app awkwardness. We use personality science (Big Five) and NLP to find people who actually click as a group.
Is this just for finding friends or also for dating?+
GEMI is strictly for forming friend groups. We've intentionally designed every part of the product — group dynamics, anonymous trial, role-balanced pods — to be the opposite of a dating app.
What's the anonymous trial period?+
For the first week, your pod chats without names or photos — only compatibility scores and conversation. This removes superficial judgment and lets real chemistry emerge. If everyone vibes, identities are revealed. If not, you rematch.
When is GEMI launching?+
Closed beta launches with 50–100 Founding Members. Public beta in Tbilisi follows shortly after. Join the waitlist for early access and Founding Member perks.
How much does it cost?+
There's a Free tier (1 pod/week, basic matching), a Pro tier ($9.99/mo with priority matching), and an Elite tier ($19.99/mo with AI activity planning). Founding Members get lifetime Pro free.
Is my personality data safe?+
Yes. We use industry-standard encryption, never sell user data, and you can delete your profile and data at any time. The data is used only to improve your matches.
