Help your community discover meaningful connections

OpenCupid is a free, open matchmaking platform for existing communities. Help members find friendships, collaborations, and partnerships — in a safe, respectful space your community controls.

Connections within your community, ready to be discovered

Within every circle — whether that's a collective, association, ecovillage, or shared-interest group — there are valuable connections that haven't been made yet. Members are often scattered, and existing platforms aren't built for this kind of discovery.

OpenCupid helps surface these connections in a safe and intentional way, helping people connect — whether for friendship, collaboration, or romantic partnership — within the circles they already belong to.

Tools for community connection

A self-hosted matchmaking platform — no subscriptions, no upsells, no hidden costs.

Browse & Match

Members create profiles and discover others based on shared interests, values, and mutual preferences. Connections happen on both sides' terms.

Messaging & Voice

Real-time chat and voice calls built in. Once you've matched, communicate naturally without switching to another app.

Bulletin Board

A community bulletin board where members can post updates, announcements, and requests — keeping everyone in the loop.

Map View

See where community members are located on an interactive map. Great for finding nearby people or planning meetups.

Push Notifications

Keep members engaged with timely notifications for new matches, messages, and community activity.

Multilingual

Built with internationalization from day one. Currently available in English and Hungarian, with more languages coming from the community.

Privacy by design

OpenCupid has no dark patterns, no data exploitation, and no manipulative design. A transparent tool that puts your community first.

Reciprocal Visibility

You only see details others choose to share if you've shared the same information yourself, and only when your preferences match theirs.

Explicit Consent

Nobody can contact you unless you've given permission. Connections happen on mutual terms.

No Dark Patterns

No hidden algorithms trying to keep you hooked, no upsells, and no data exploitation. Transparent and honest by design.

Community-Owned Data

Self-host on your own infrastructure. Your community's data stays with your community — never sold, never shared.
