In a moment when online dating often feels dominated by swiping, LetsVibe set out to make the experience more respectful and focused on behavior. On the app, women rate the text (the 'Opener') of the men who message them before seeing their pictures, using a thumbs up/down style evaluation. This rating then influences what other members can see, creating a form of social proof around 'good vibes' rather than appearance alone.
LetsVibe presents itself as the 'world’s first vibe-dating app.' The platform introduces metrics such as VibeRate and ResponseRate to reflect how members respond and how they have been rated by others, with the idea that respectful behavior is rewarded and consistently disrespectful behavior is less likely to stay in the community. The app notes that at launch it is 'for girls who like guys and vice versa,' while also stating respect for all sexual orientations and intentions to offer more options in the future. The app developer is listed as LetsVibe GmbH, based in Munich.
