SprintDate: speed dating

8cells.com

About this app

SprintDate is video speed dating — without swiping, collecting profiles, or ghosting.

Choose an event and get a ticket. At the scheduled time, join the lobby and the app connects you with other participants for a series of short, face-to-face video conversations. After each conversation, decide whether you would like to stay in touch. If both people say yes, it is a match and you can start chatting in the app.

WHY SPRINTDATE

• The timer keeps every conversation clear and comfortable
• Each conversation starts with an icebreaker question
• Participants complete face verification
• Live moderation is available during events
• Join online or in-person events

HOW IT WORKS

1. Choose an event and get your ticket
2. Join the lobby shortly before the start
3. Take part in a series of short one-to-one video conversations
4. Choose who you would like to stay in touch with
5. A mutual yes creates a match and opens in-app chat

Organizers can create their own events with different formats, numbers of rounds, conversation lengths, and participant limits. Events may be free or paid. Payments for paid events are handled by Stripe, and refund rules depend on the individual event.

SprintDate is part of the 8cells platform, alongside SprintRounds for professional networking.

What’s new

Event cards now show full details, start times and current availability, and refresh when you return. Shared event links open directly in the installed app. Online events check camera and microphone access, ask for a decision after every conversation, and reveal mutual matches or contacts immediately. Custom round timings and interests are displayed correctly.
