Whether you’re personally on the market or you’ve heard it from those who are – dating in 2025 is exhausting. With social media pressures, expensive expectations, and reams of dating apps at the tip of your fingers, it’s becoming hard to find an authentic connection in the modern day. That’s where Tawkify comes in. As America’s largest matchmaking service, Tawkify is meeting these obstacles with a modern approach to matchmaking that’s redefining what dating should look like.
A Professional Process

No more lazy bar dates or last-minute dinner plans. Tawkify’s astute team of expert matchmakers work to curate your ideal date based on your exact preferences, and they’ll pair you up with someone that aligns to you. This tailor-made interaction increases the likelihood that you’ll have a successful date with someone suited to you, reducing the time drain of playing first-date roulette.
Keep it Moving
From museum roaming to café hopping, Tawkify’s proprietary data shows that activity dates lead to a 1.25X chance of getting a second date. Becoming immersed in an activity allows you to let go of any superficial fears about forcing a connection. Instead, you and your date can enjoy yourselves, together. Tawkify also encourages sober dates, believing the best way to get to know someone is with a clear mind and genuine connection. This coincides with the growing popularity of sober curiosity and departure of the default “let’s grab a drink”.

According to Alcohol Change, a quarter of people aged 18 to 34 planned to abstain from drinking this January for a multitude of reasons, including health, cost, and re-establishing relationships outside the remit of alcohol. Tawkify’s network is living proof of this shift. The platform reveals the following, based on its database of millions of singles and hundreds of thousands of curated matches:
– Boomers see a 22% increase in match success when meeting for an activity date compared to going to a bar.
– Gen Z daters are 2x more likely to find match success when going to a cafe or restaurant for their first date, rather than a bar.
– Millennials have the highest chance of match success for their first date when going on an indoor activity, such as visiting a museum.
