01 · Matching
The right person.
Personality-based AI matching. One curated introduction a week — not a deck of strangers to swipe through.
02 · Venue
The right place.
Pukka picks the venue, books the slot, and sends the details. No awkward "where should we go?" back and forth.

Verified. Private. Safe.
A · Verified
Students only.
University email gating, photo verification, and human review. Nobody on Pukka is pretending to be a student — because they can't be.
B · Private
No public profile.
Your details never appear in a feed. There's no profile page to find, no swipe deck to be in. You exist to one person a week — by mutual agreement.
C · Safe
A way out.
Every introduction has a soft exit. Reply "not for me" any time and we'll pull the match before the date. No awkwardness, no streaks to break.
/04 · Questions
The obvious questions.
Yes. There's no app to download. You text a number, we text you back, and over the course of a week we curate one introduction and book the venue. It works on iMessage, SMS, and WhatsApp.
Five agents work in sequence: profile analysis, vibe matching, simulated first conversations, ranking, and date planning. The system runs hundreds of simulated dates before picking the one most likely to feel like a real conversation.
Right now: undergraduates at the University of Manchester with a valid .ac.uk email. More Russell Group campuses coming. If you're not at a launch campus yet, you can join the waitlist for yours.
£5 one-time to enter your campus pool. That's it.
We're starting with dating because the loneliness data is clearest there. Friend-matching and professional networking come next, on the same iMessage rails.
Profile data is used only to match you. We don't sell it, don't surface it publicly, and you can delete everything by texting "delete me" at any time.
