# ValuePair

> A friendship app with no blank opening chat. ValuePair introduces you to one
> compatible person at a time, then gives both of you the same 14 questions.
> Each answer stays private until you have both answered it, and photos stay
> blurred until the reveal is earned. There is no feed or swiping, no ads, and
> no pay-to-match. Free to use during the beta.

## Product

- One match at a time, never a feed or a swipe queue.
- Matching weighs an importance-weighted values profile; users can mark
  individual questions as hard filters.
- After the 14-question conversation, both people choose whether to go deeper;
  a mutual yes opens a persistent chat.
