Pace
love at your own pace
Safety
Dating should feel calm, not risky.
PACE should make it easy for users to slow down, pay attention, and report behavior that feels wrong. Safety is a product requirement, not marketing copy.
Watch for scam patterns
Be cautious if someone quickly asks to move off-platform, asks for money, invents urgent emergencies, or pushes for trust before earning it. Those are common romance-scam patterns.
Use in-app controls
PACE supports reporting, blocking, and unmatching from live product surfaces. Users should use those controls when behavior becomes unsafe, manipulative, or abusive.
Meet carefully
If users choose to meet in person, they should use public places, tell someone where they are going, and avoid situations that create immediate dependency or pressure.
Product commitment
The product should continue to improve reporting, blocking, moderation review, and safety communication before any broad-scale launch.
