    This is a fairly big departure from what you proposed here but your comment made me think about it:

    If you had one time / every 5 year payments, you could charge a fairly sizable amount and then use a portion of that money to hire people to vet, interview, and take professional photographs of every user for their profiles (which they could of course combine with their own pictures, though those would be unverified). I’m thinking like $500+, to be clear - but for that you get:

    • great pictures taken of you
    • more confidence that anyone you see or match with is actually the person they say they are
    • ability to have your interview used for determining compatibility, such that anyone you’re introduced to on the app is much more likely to be into you and someone you’re into
