GetYou is a mobile app (iOS and Android, available now or by invite) that uses gamified, semi-anonymous feedback mechanisms to show how others perceive a user’s age, occupation and personality. Users view a member’s picture, answer prompts (e.g., “How old do you think he is?” or “Is she a DJ or brain surgeon?”), and receive analyzed results about perceptions. Participants can then friend people who judged them, and judges receive a score reflecting how intuitive or accurate their impressions were. The product is positioned to bridge first-impression gaps and encourage social discovery, with potential for both platonic and flirtatious interactions. Founder and CEO Dr. Orit Mossinson leads the company, which has raised $1.1 million in seed funding. The company’s monetization strategy is not yet clear; the article suggests potential models if the app scales, including quasi-dating approaches.
