Overview

Pair is a Y Combinator startup that operates a mobile social network exclusively for couples. The app enables couples to trade photos, draw simultaneously, and use a Thumbkiss feature that vibrates when users' thumbs touch. The product was built by a five‑person founding team: Oleg Kostour, Jamie Murai, Anton Krutiansky, Aswinkumar Rajendiran and Michael Petrov. Since launch Pair has seen over 220K downloads in the past month. The company raised $4.2M in a seed financing and plans to use the funding to expand its mobile development and design team. The team says it will further explore dynamic ways for couples to engage and integrate subtle social interactions into the product.
