How it works · 5 min read

Your friends do the pitching.

The whole loop, start to finish: friends build the profile, vouches make it credible, friends introduce you to people they trust, Curious replaces swiping, and matches stay close to home.

On Greenflag, your friends build your profile: they write the pitch, add vouches, and the profile only goes live with their participation. Then they introduce you: when a friend knows someone you should meet, they send your profile to that person themselves, and you decide whether to accept the introduction. You can also browse nearby people in San Diego and get Curious. Chat unlocks on an accepted introduction or mutual interest. Free to use.

N°01 - THE IDEA

A dating profile your friends stand behind.

Greenflag flips who writes the profile. You provide the raw material: photos, basic facts, the things only you know. Your friends turn that into the pitch and add vouches, short statements with their name and relationship attached.

A profile cannot go live without friend participation. That publishing gate is the product: every live profile on Greenflag carries the word of real people who know the person. And those same friends are the ones who can introduce you: not the app, not an algorithm, a person who knows you both.

N°02 - THE LOOP

From invite to first date.

01

Invite your friends

Pick the people who know you best: friends, family, roommates, teammates. They can contribute from anywhere, in any language.

02

They build your profile

Friends write the pitch, choose the stories and photos, and leave vouches in their own words. You cannot edit what they say. That is the point.

03

Your profile goes live in San Diego

Once your friends complete the core work, your profile publishes into your local market: San Diego County.

04

A friend introduces you

When one of your friends knows someone you should meet, they send your profile to that person themselves, in their own thread. If that person is interested, they raise their hand and add a few photos and basics, and your friend adds a line on why. The introduction lands with you to accept, or to quietly let pass.

05

Browse nearby, no swiping

Browsing is just browsing. There is no public pass or reject, and no scoreboard attached to moving through profiles.

06

Get Curious

When someone genuinely interests you, you get Curious. Curious is blind and limited to a small set of people at a time, so interest stays intentional.

07

Chat unlocks when it is mutual

Accept an introduction, or be Curious about each other at the same time, and messaging opens. From there a plan is a short walk away: same city, same streets.

N°03 - WHY IT WORKS

An introduction costs a friend something. That is the point.

A swipe is free. A friend's introduction is not: when they send your profile to someone, they are telling a person they already trust that you are worth their time, and they will hear how it went. So friends do not forward your profile around. They choose one person, someone they can already picture you with, and they say why.

That is why an introduction on Greenflag carries more than a match. It arrives with a name, a relationship, and a reason, from someone who has something to lose if they are wrong. And it only ever happens on your terms: introductions are on for every live profile and you can turn them off in Settings, you can see and revoke every link you have shared, and nothing opens until you accept.

N°04 - WHAT IT COSTS

Free to use.

Greenflag is free to download and use: friend-built profiles, introductions, browsing, matching, and messaging included. Nobody pays to be seen, nobody can pay to rank higher, and nobody is ever paid or charged for an introduction.
