The Problem SuitableLove Solves

In today's dating landscape, most apps are centered around fast, appearance-based connections. These platforms, such as Tinder, often focus on superficial interactions, pushing users to make snap judgments based on photos. This leads to a lack of meaningful engagement and authentic relationships, leaving users frustrated and disconnected.

Additionally, traditional dating apps monetize their platforms through restrictive measures, limiting free users' experience and coercing them into paying for features like extra swipes or better profile visibility. On top of that, issues with trust, privacy, and fake profiles further degrade user experience. Bots, scams, and weak data protection make many users feel unsafe and hesitant to fully engage.

Challenges we ran into

1. Theorizing a Viable Business Model
   Problem: We struggled to create a sustainable business model that balanced user incentives with profitability. Finding the right monetization strategy without alienating users was challenging.
2. Implementing All Interactions On-Chain via Smart Contract
   While the technology behind smart contracts is Sui is very convenient due to the oriented object approach, our team's unfamiliarity with the Move programming language made implementation challenging. Understanding how to properly leverage its capabilities for all user interactions required extensive learning and iteration.
3. Difficulty in Implementing Transaction Sponsoring
   Problem: We faced hurdles in managing transaction sponsoring to avoid congestion and latency. This was crucial for maintaining a smooth user experience during interactions and token rewards.
