If dating apps make you feel exhausted, you're not alone. Endless swiping, superficial conversations, and constant ghosting—modern dating apps can feel more draining than fulfilling.
Maroon is different. Here's why.
In 2024, Pew Research found that 76% of dating app users feel overwhelmed by superficial interactions. Matches rarely turn into meaningful connections. Ghosting has become normal. Users are tired, frustrated, and disillusioned.
Maroon was created to solve exactly this problem.
Unlike traditional dating apps, Maroon intentionally limits how many profiles you see each day. Instead of swiping mindlessly, you're encouraged to take your time, engage deeply, and discover genuine compatibility.
Dr. Venkat Uppalapati, co-founder of Maroon, explains: "We've designed Maroon to foster quality over quantity. When you slow down, you actually get to know people. And that's how meaningful connections form."
Forget superficial bios and filtered selfies. Maroon profiles feature carefully crafted questions that reveal personality, values, and what truly matters to each user. You'll see real people, not just curated highlights.
Research from Stanford's Digital Love Lab (2025) shows that detailed, authentic profiles significantly improve the odds of meaningful interactions, leading to higher relationship satisfaction.
Opening conversations can be awkward. Maroon fixes that. Your matches begin conversations based on shared interests and thoughtful responses you've already provided. Less awkwardness, more genuine interaction.
We're not just an app—we're building a community. Maroon IRL events at local wine bars offer relaxed environments to meet face-to-face, away from screens. These gatherings add a human touch that's missing from online dating.
If you're between 25 and 40, living in Miami, and tired of superficial dating, Maroon was built for you. We prioritize emotional intelligence, authenticity, and meaningful connections.
Join a community that values what dating should really be: good for the soul.
