bringing back chance encounters

goodbye swiping… hello video chat

We pair you on 5 min video chats so you can meet new faces from your couch…then decide if it’s a match. Because no profile can convey what you’ll learn in the first few minutes of a date. How it works.

Every Wednesday 7pm - 8pm EST and PST

Try it out!

a more human way to connect

We miss unplanned encounters—striking up a convo at the grocery store, complaining about the subway with a stranger, laughing with a new friend of a friend at the bar. Some of these sparked a romance, or just gave us the temporary thrill of being seen. We don't have that anymore. We're either interacting with flat profiles, or hanging out with people we already know in carefully planned circumstances. We want people on Chorus (who meet each others preferences) to "bump into each other." Just set yourself to active and go about your night. If you're in the middle of stir-frying dinner—cool. If you don't feel like changing out of your sweats—great. A first meeting shouldn't be a first date; let's take the pressure off and enjoy meeting a new face.

—Emily, Founder of Chorus
