Human
Personality, communication, values, friendship style, and what support feels useful.
01
Same answers
Shared single answers score fully; multi-select questions use the share of choices they have in common.
Connection type
What is actually built
Three rings, one connection at a time
The engine starts with 29 conversational questions and the facts each member shares about her business. It scores all six kinds of connection for every pair her plan allows—then shows the member why one of them might be worth her attention.
Life
Season of life, family, routines, availability, interests, and how she likes to connect.
Business
Industry, stage, offers, current need, mentoring, and investment intent.
Reading an answer
Four signals, in plain language
02
She has what you need
A stated need can meet a compatible offer—for example, a member looking for visibility meeting a brand expert.
03
Opposites can help
Energy differences are softened into a positive signal for Referral and Collaboration, where contrast can be useful.
04
Values can rule a pair out
If both women answer the values question and share nothing, the pair is excluded on every connection type.
What she needs most
The need ranks, it never filters
“What do you need most in your business right now?” used to close four of the six connection types: say a mentor and collaborators, referral partners, clients and investors all went quiet. It no longer does. Every type her plan carries stays open — her answer only changes the order.
1.0
Both named it
She wants collaborators and so does the other woman. Full weight on that connection type.
0.5
One named it
Only one of them said it. Half weight — and it reads the same whichever of them said it.
0.25
Neither named it
Still scored, still findable, ranked underneath the women who are actually looking for it.
Her For You page opens on the type she named, and falls back to Vibe when her plan does not carry it or when nobody is in it yet. Accountability and Visibility name no connection type, so they rank nothing and open on Vibe — where they used to leave a member with no business matches at all.
Two gates remain, and neither is about her week: a woman who has not said she is open to mentoring is never offered as a mentor, and a woman who does not invest is never offered as an investor. That is her answer about herself, not someone else's answer about what they need.
Six views of the pair
The relationship changes the score
Vibe is available to Free, Community, and Business. Mentor, Referral, Collaboration, Client, and Investor are available when both members are on Business. Mentor and Investor try both role assignments and keep the better fit. Referral and Collaboration count how many of the two named the need, so they read the same from either side; Client is the one that still differs by direction, because selling into an industry is not the same as buying from it.
The Business ring does not blend six connection types together. The selected connection type gets its own Business slot, combined with the pair's Business-ring compatibility.
Confidence without pretending
Weights follow the answers that exist
The starting balance is 40% Human, 25% Life, and 35% Business. Each ring is scaled by how much both women actually answered, then the available rings are rebalanced back to 100%. An unanswered question contributes nothing; there is no drip schedule and no invented midpoint.
Both directions
The weaker side keeps the final honest
Human and Life contribute the same amount in both directions. The selected Business fit can differ. The final score uses a harmonic mean, so a strong one-way match cannot completely hide a weak reverse fit.
That is why the playground shows “Maya → Dana,” “Dana → Maya,” and the final score together.
What a member sees
Why, shared signals, and an opener
A card can name strong Human or Life compatibility and a strong connection-type fit—at most three reasons. It can show up to four concrete shared signals. A conversation opener is only offered when the engine has at least one reason behind the match.
Building her list
Nearest members first, rebuilt each run
The candidate pool starts with the nearest eligible members, up to 500, with an optional distance limit. Matches are rebuilt from current answers and access each run. Women she saved remain saved even when the generated list refreshes.
This page is a self-contained simulation. It uses the same catalog, sparse relationships, ring coverage, connection rules, need weighting, plan gates, reasons, shared signals, and score rounding as the application—without making network or account requests.
