What MatchMachine is, the facts, and images you can use.

MatchMachine is a dating app that compares your whole birth chart with someone else’s and explains, in plain words, what comes easily between you and what takes work.

About MatchMachine

Most astrology dating stops at Sun signs, which put you in a group with one person in twelve. MatchMachine works out each member’s full birth chart from their birth date, time and place, then compares it planet by planet with the people near them. Every pairing gets a score and a label, and behind them the actual aspects between the two charts, each explained in plain language. Nobody can pay to be shown higher. Beyond dating, everyone gets their own chart, a daily forecast for their own chart and chart comparisons with friends. Dating opens in Arizona first; the astrology features work everywhere. MatchMachine is for adults 18 and over.

What makes it different

  • The whole chart, not the Sun sign. Compatibility uses every planet, sign and the angles between them, with a written description for every planet pair at every major aspect: 330 in all.
  • Reasons up front. Each profile shows how your charts compare, where you line up and what’s worth talking about, including the hard parts.
  • Nobody can pay to be shown higher. Who you see depends on your preferences and who opened the app recently. Subscriptions, likes received and reply speed don’t count.
  • Astrology that holds up. Positions come from the Swiss Ephemeris (geocentric, tropical, Placidus houses).
  • Birth details stay private. Profiles show Sun, Moon and Rising; exact birthday, birth time and birthplace are never shown to other members.
  • More than dating. A daily forecast, personal reports, and comparing charts with friends, kept apart from dating.

How matching works

  1. You give your birth date and place, and your birth time if you know it.
  2. We work out your birth chart on our own servers. Your birth details aren’t sent to any outside astrology service.
  3. Each day the app compares your chart with up to about 100 people nearby who fit what you’re looking for.
  4. Your day starts with your Most Aligned picks, then a mix across every level of compatibility, so nobody is hidden for a lower score.
  5. Recently active people come first. Nothing else moves anyone up.
  6. When two people like each other, they match and can chat.

Scores are astrological interpretation, for fun and reflection. They don’t say how a relationship will turn out.

Privacy

  • No ads in the app, and we don’t sell personal information.
  • No analytics vendor: we count usage ourselves, as daily totals with no user or device ID.
  • Others see your city, never your exact location, and never your exact birth details.
  • People can download their data and delete their account in the app.
