Alternative to WooPlus
More room for who you are.
WooPlus brings body-positive dating to the foreground. If you're curious about a personal introduction too, give Known a try. We want to hear about your life, your interests and what makes you light up. From there, we introduce one person at a time and help plan a date when you both want to meet.
I love the way they have integrated voice AI and the voice AI that they have used is pretty good questions are pretty straightforward and I hope this is gonna be fun. I would highly recommend. I would highly recommend this too many people to try it out because unlike the traditional with this AI world, what is going around if people are tired of too many questions and stuff like that and filling out forms and all that with this voice thing that makes it very easy two or three steps and you were talking to someone like a real person and hopefully it gets. I’m still going to wait for the result after I’m accepted on the waitlist and can’t wait to see what happens next.
From the personalized phone call onboard, to the relaxed vibe of the UI, and the presentation of yourself and your matches, Known reminds us that finding love is all about patience and sincerity. And it’s the best partner for that journey!!! Highly recommend if you want to actually find your person.
Such a cool and interesting dating app!! Nothing like ive seen before
How is Known different?
Want a date that fits your life?
Your preferences matter.
Your match, preferences, and availability help shape the date. Known looks for a place that fits, not just somewhere to meet.
Who is making the actual plan?
We make the date happen
When you and your match are ready to meet, Known finds a time that works for both of you, picks a spot nearby, books the reservation, and sends you the details. We take care of everything so you don’t have to.
Ready to get off the screen?
Skip the pen-pal phase
We believe chemistry is best discovered in person, not over a screen. Known skips the endless small talk and conversations that go nowhere, so you can see if there’s a spark in person. Once you both say yes to an introduction, Known finds a time that works and plans the date. Save the real getting-to-know-you part for when you meet.
Still wondering where it’s going?
Meet people looking for what you are
Known is a community of intentional daters who are ready for a real relationship. Whether you’re newly single, divorced, have been dating for a while, or simply ready to find your person - our matchmaker gets to know you and what you’re looking for so we can find the same in the people we introduce you to.
Too many profiles, not enough possibility?
Dating that cares about your time
Known is searching for your match every day, so you don’t have to spend hours swiping or checking for someone new. When we find someone you want to meet, we plan the date and send you the details. You just have to show up.
More than a good first photo?
Meet someone chosen for you
There’s a lot about you that could never fit into a dating profile. At Known, we get to know all the little things that make you, you - your quirks, values, aspirations, and what you’re looking for in a relationship. We do the same with your potential matches, so we can introduce you to someone we believe you’ll have real compatibility with.
Known vs WooPlus
The starting point
WooPlus is a body-positive dating community that welcomes diverse body types.
Known starts with a conversation about your values, preferences and relationship goals.
Getting to know someone
Members introduce themselves through profiles, photos and videos, then match and chat.
When both people want to meet, Known helps plan the date and its practical details.
Your phone
WooPlus has a US iOS App Store listing. Check the publisher’s current availability before choosing it for a different device.
Known is available on iOS and Android, so you can choose the same matchmaking service on either phone.
Known is like a better hinge, it’s a great matchmaking service/dating app.
So glad I signed up! Known is not yet in my city but I am excited for when it comes! I’ve heard amazing things and can’t wait to see for myself why Known is amazing!
This is genuinely one of a kind. Went on a great date through the platform and enjoyed the entire experience
How Known Works
A little more personal.
Swipeless dating.
You don't browse people. You're introduced to them.
Known starts by getting to know you. Not just your profile, but how you think, what you value, and who you're drawn to.
From there, we introduce you to one person at a time. Someone chosen with intention. Someone worth meeting.
No endless options. No small talk.
If there's mutual interest, we set the date. Time, place, everything handled. All you have to do is show up.
It gets better over time.
After each date, Known learns. What felt right. What didn't. What surprised you.
So every introduction becomes more accurate. More natural. More you.
Less searching. More knowing.
Some of our favorite places
Where Known dates take place
Lower Haight / San Francisco
Cafe Réveille
Réveille’s Steiner Street café puts specialty coffee and an all-day selection of salads and sandwiches within reach of Duboce Park. The minimalist corner space makes a useful meeting point for a daytime date: begin with coffee, then choose between something to eat and a walk.

Birba
Birba is an intimate wine bar on Grove Street with a covered, string-lit garden out back, making it a quieter spot to get to know your date. The wine list mixes old-world classics with natural bottles you can pull straight from the shelf.

Russian Hill / San Francisco
Bar Bibi
Chef Bahman Safari opened Bar Bibi last year in Russian Hill, turning a two-story corner space into a cozy neighborhood wine bar. For a date, the pillow-lined nooks tucked against the windows make for an intimate spot to settle in over a bottle.
