VIRAL NATION – Yeet is a Gen Z dating app that lets people chat before deciding whether to match. Co-founder and head of marketing Penny Chen said many of its features came from feedback collected through Founder Club, a Discord group with around 2,000 members. Users complained about swipe fatigue, ghosting, and matches that went nowhere. Yeet responded with real-time Vibin’ Chats and an AI assistant that suggests icebreakers without taking over the conversation. The app has more than 90,000 downloads, and 62% of completed Vibin’ Chats result in a mutual match.
