What exactly is your proprietary technology for providing pre-date information and post date information? Is your proprietary tech the questionnaires for rators/ratees to fill out?
The proprietary technology is not limited to the questionnaire. Instead, it is, more generally, an automated system in which information regarding a date is collected from a date participant (via the questionnaire) and processed to determine, for example, a date rating. The date rating, in turn, is then automatically sent to the other date participant. The system also automatically prompts the participants to take specific actions based on the rating, such as sending a message or gift to the other participant, or directing a participant to information for improving dating skills. The communications may occur between mobile devices, such as cell phones. The date rating information may also be made available to other users of the system. Another aspect of the technology is that it provides a centralized database of user date rating information that can be accessed from different Internet dating sites. A unique user interface is provided on the Internet dating sites for accessing the centralized database, and statistical analysis of a user's dating history and other features are also provided. |

Is the Widget functionality as simple as “point, drag, and drop?”
a. The Widget is built using an API, so must be integrated with dating site back-end; it must be hooked-in to their code. The work was specifically designed to be relatively simple and straight-forward
b. The degree of integration difficulty (or ease) depends upon the level of customization (white-label vs. branded) the dating sites desires.
c. Service Partner (RYD’s largest existing partner) will handle all integration from their customers; RYD will be responsible for integration with clients that is signs on its own. |
