Dating is broken.Let’s fix it together.

Get Linkd Up replaces swiping with a 60-second live video, so you feel the spark before you match. We’re building it with people who want real, lasting love, and we want you in.

The problem

Swiping ruined dating.We're done pretending it didn't.

Somewhere along the way, dating apps stopped helping people find love and started keeping them busy. You judge a photo, match with a stranger, then spend days texting someone you may never click with. That's backwards.

  • Endless swiping.

    Hundreds of profiles, zero real connection. Swipe fatigue is real, and it's burning people out.

  • Ghosting.

    You put in the time and the energy, and then they just disappear. Again.

  • Profiles that lie.

    Filtered photos and polished bios rarely show who someone really is. Catfishing and spam make it worse.

  • Hookup culture.

    If you want commitment, most apps make you feel like the odd one out.

If you're tired of modern dating, you're not the problem. The system is.

Most apps ask you to decide based on pictures, then hope the conversation works out. Get Linkd Up puts real interaction first. One minute of live video tells you more than a week of texting, and you only match when the chemistry is mutual.

Why we're building this ? We want a dating app that leads to long-term relationships, marriage, and families, not just hookups. And we're not building it on assumptions. We're building it with the people who are tired of modern dating.

  • 60-second live video

    Meet face to face before you match. Real energy, real vibe, no guesswork.

  • Instant chemistry check

    Know within a minute if there's a spark, and skip the dead-end conversations.

  • Wingman Mode

    Bring a friend along for support, confidence and a second opinion. Dating is better with your people.

  • In-call games

    Built-in icebreakers take the awkwardness out of first hellos and make meeting someone fun

  • Anti-ghosting

    When you meet face to face first, there's nothing to hide behind. That means more honesty and fewer disappearing acts.

Meet the founder

Amber knows what lasting love looks like.She grew up in it.

Amber Whigham is a wife, a mother of two daughters, and the daughter of parents who are still happily married. She has seen firsthand that great relationships aren't built on luck. They're built on honesty, manners, and consistency.

Watching people around her struggle with modern dating, she wrote the book Swippin’ Ruined Dating. Get Linkd Up is the next chapter: a spam-free, authentic space where people of every background, straight or LGBTQ+, can find a real match.

"Love didn't get harder. Dating apps just made it harder to find. I want to build something that brings back honesty, respect, and real conversation."
