About Aligna
What is Aligna?
Aligna is a relationship-focused matchmaking service. A personal AI dating advisor gets to know what you’re looking for, and a trained person reviews every introduction before it’s made. It’s designed for adults who want a long-term relationship.
Who is Aligna for?
Adults in New York City who want a serious, long-term relationship and prefer thoughtful introductions to endless browsing. The Terms of Use set out who can join.
Is Aligna available now?
Not yet. We’re preparing a pilot in New York City. Early access requests will open soon on this site.
Where is Aligna available?
We’re launching first in New York City. We have no dates for other cities yet.
What does membership cost?
We’ll share pilot membership details with invitations. We won’t charge anyone without telling them clearly first.
Compatibility and introductions
Is there swiping?
No. There’s no swiping and no public catalog of members. You’re introduced to one person at a time.
Will I see a compatibility score?
No. Each introduction explains in plain words what you share and what might be worth discussing. We don’t think a single number can describe two people.
Does a person really review introductions?
Yes. In the pilot, every introduction waits for a trained reviewer, and nothing is shown to either member before it’s approved.
Does Aligna book dates?
No. Aligna suggests first-date ideas in public places, and both people agree a plan. Aligna doesn’t make reservations or payments.
AI
What does the AI advisor do?
It helps you build your profile through conversation, clarify what matters to you, understand why an introduction was made, and prepare for dates. AI processing needs your separate permission, and its conversations with you are private.
Can I connect ChatGPT or Muse?
Not yet. The connection is built and tested in our own environment but depends on each provider’s review and approval. When it’s available, you’ll choose what your assistant may do and approve every request in Aligna.
Will Aligna read my ChatGPT or Muse history?
No. Aligna never reads your assistant’s chat history or memories. It only answers the specific requests you allow.
Privacy and safety
Who can see my profile?
Only people you’re introduced to, and only the details shown in an introduction.
How do I report or block someone?
In the app, use Report on the person’s profile or in your conversation. You can block someone at any time. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, at any time in the app. The Privacy Policy explains what is deleted and when.
