BrainMatch
Know yourself first, a relationship app with no swiping or games
BrainMatch is a know-yourself-first relationship app by Zach Lafer (SDSU 2025, Fowler Scholar, ZIP Launchpad). Answer questions to light up your cartoon brain map. No scores or gamification: a private journal, a sealed letter to your future partner, and nightly questions for couples. Free during beta.
Also in the headset: spaces work in the Meta Quest Browser. Play the day's this-or-that and photograph the setting and your avatar, all by hand with no controllers. Keeps land in your phone journal; nothing saves by itself. BrainMatch never gets a camera picture or video of you. The sign-up form has a headset beta box. (Phone app: no AR or VR.)
