Looking for an Alternative to eHarmony?
If eHarmony hasn't worked for you, you're not alone — and you're not wrong. There's a better way to find lasting love online, and it doesn't involve another swipe.
Why people leave eHarmony
The most common feedback we hear from former eHarmony users: dating started to feel like work. Endless scrolling, low signal, time wasted on people who weren't actually looking for what they said they were. The product was designed to keep them on it — not to help them leave it with someone.
What Smart Dates does instead
One curated pick a day. A real Compatibility Read. Story Cards instead of profile prompts that get gamed. A 7-day window for real conversation. Live Hello video when chemistry shows up early. And a 90-day free trial so you can test it without committing a dollar.
What's different
- No feed. You'll never scroll on Smart Dates because there's nothing to scroll through.
- One decision a day. Yes or no, then back to your life.
- Verified members only. No bots, no catfishing, no recycled profiles.
- Transparent pricing. $19 or $39 one-time for a full year. No subscriptions to cancel.
Try it free for 90 days
