"Curated" by Who, Exactly?
Coffee Meets Bagel limits daily matches to reduce overwhelm. That's a feature, not an architecture change. An algorithm still decides who your "bagels" are.
What Coffee Meets Bagel Does
Coffee Meets Bagel sends a limited number of curated matches each day, designed to reduce the overwhelm of infinite swiping. The approach appeals to people who want quality over quantity. But the curation is done by an algorithm, not by you. You're getting fewer algorithmic picks, not better ones.
What We Do Differently
Love On Deck puts you in control of the curation through your own filters. You set your search filters and visibility filters. You're the curator, not a recommendation engine. Both sides must match before either discovers the other.
Feature Comparison
The Verdict
Coffee Meets Bagel reduces quantity. Love On Deck gives you control. If you want fewer matches chosen by an algorithm, use CMB. If you want to choose for yourself, use Love On Deck.
