I am founder of Speed Match Studio. I and created Auckland New Friends Circle with the help and inspiration from my friends.

You see, in life, the quality of our relationships is the overwhelming factor driving our satisfaction.

But I noticed (like you) that the environment that shapes our modern life can make it harder to form relationships, be it platonic or romantic.

I noticed that the apps that were meant to fix this problem unjustly reduce human beings to a two-dimensional profile.

I also saw evidence that we’ve unwittingly become addicted to a sinister game of “being liked”.

Auckland New Friends Circle does not aim to get you hooked.

Our mission is to help you find your circle, so you no longer need my or anyone else’s services.

The old app format didn’t make it easy to get new people into your circle.

Maybe it’s time to try a new format.
