25 cities

Dating in India

Meeting somebody works differently in every city — where people actually go, how far anybody will travel on a weeknight, what a first date costs in time rather than money. These are the 25 we have written up so far.

How Cosmic Match works

Meet Aura, an AI that gets you.

Aura is an emotionally intelligent AI, built on human psychology. It starts with what you write on your profile and gets to know you better as you chat, so there is nothing extra to fill in, and a few times a day it introduces you to someone you’ll feel most yourself with, inside a radius you choose. Your stars are read too, as one more layer: give your birth date, time and city and the app draws your wheel — Sun, Moon and Rising — and every introduction is scored against it across ten parameters, long-term stability among them.
