Our take

Dating apps remain as popular as ever, with a user base of over 320 million users. With a plethora of apps to choose from, each one has its own approach to dating and relationships.

Coffee Meets Bagel is a dating app that promises more serious connections. The app distinguishes itself from competitors like Bumble and Tinder by limiting the number of matches it offers during a 24-hour window.

Younger consumers are frequently looking for new ways to connect online, which gives new apps hope in a market forecasted to have a volume of almost $9 billion by 2028. However, the landscape can change quickly and Coffee Meets Bagel will always be grappling for position against other new entrants and big players, such as Bumble, Happn, The League, and Hinge.
