Bumble adds AI-powered photo feedback and profile guidance tools | TechCrunch

"The dating app's new AI-suggested profile guidance tool will roll out globally and give "personalized, actionable feedback" on users' bios and prompts. For users in the U.S., the profile guidance feature can be augmented with an AI photo feedback tool, which can "help you choose the best photos and show up as your most authentic self.""

"Bumble says that its AI photo tool might encourage you to ditch photos where you're wearing sunglasses that cover your face, and add a wider variety of photos, like ones taken outdoors or with friends. It's advice you could've easily gotten from a friend ten years ago, but it's still new information to many users."

""With Suggest a Date, we're creating a clear expression of intent and giving members a way to bypass the traditional back-and-forth and move toward meeting in real life," Bumble CTO Vivek Sagi said in a statement. "When we reduce friction at the moments that matter most, we help people connect with clarity and confidence.""

Bumble introduced AI-powered features designed to enhance user profiles and convert matches into lasting relationships. A profile guidance tool provides personalized feedback on bios and prompts globally, while U.S. users gain access to an AI photo feedback tool offering suggestions like removing sunglasses-covered photos and adding diverse images. Though the recommendations are conventional advice, they remain valuable for many users. Additionally, Bumble is testing a non-AI feature called "Suggest a Date" in Canada, enabling users to signal readiness for in-person meetings when conversations stall. This feature aims to reduce friction in transitioning from online chat to offline connection.
