RedKnot
There's an old story — told in Chinese, and with a different knot in every Asian household — that an invisible red thread already ties you to the person you're meant to find.
The thread is fate's job. The knot is ours. A personal matchmaking club: one long, honest questionnaire, read by an actual friend, followed by real introductions. No swiping. No public profiles. No app.
Free. Run by one person who takes this unreasonably seriously.
How it works
You apply
A real questionnaire — the kind a matchmaker would ask over coffee, not “what’s your love language.” Express version takes ~10 minutes; the full version is where the magic lives.
I read every word
Not an algorithm skimming keywords. Me, reading your application twice, plus an AI assistant I use the way a tailor uses pins — it suggests, I decide.
I scheme
Dealbreakers filter first. Values do the matching. Your “what would an ex say” answer does more than your height ever will. If we’ve never met, we’ll grab a call first.
One introduction
No lists, no browsing. You get a short intro about one person and why. Both say yes → blind date (or a seat at the same dinner, if you’d rather it start as friends).
The questions apps are scared of
Most of us are quietly navigating two cultures at once. The form actually asks about it.
The science is blunt: trait wishlists don't predict anything. Values, dealbreakers, attachment, and family reality do. So that's what I ask about — and what gets weighed when I'm scheming on your behalf.
Or just come hang
Some of the best matches don't start as dates. I throw dinners, parties, and the occasional weekend-long retreat with twenty great people and zero agenda. Is this for friends or dating? That's up to you— my job is to get you in a room with people you'd actually want to know. Check the box in the application and you're on the list.
