Core Matchmaking & Discovery

• Swipe-Style Card Profiles

  Familiar matchmaking controls optimized for rapid profile discovery. Descriptive tags to express who you are as a streamer. Intuitive intention badges describe why you are matching.

  Want to see someone in action? We have a "LIVE NOW" badge so that you can check them out via the in-profile embed before you swipe.

• Low-Risk Connections

  Resource-limited connection requests are automatically refunded if rejected or timed out after 72 hours. Low limits ensure every outreach is a thoughtful, high-intent action.

  Note: Only outgoing connections consume a slot. All consumed baseline slots refresh on the 1st of every month.

• Temporary Matches & Chats

  Avoid the pressure of dead DMs. Matches gracefully un-match and text histories permanently erase after 7 days. Move your vibe-check off-platform before the clock runs out!

  Note: Chats are not end-to-end encrypted. A report button allows users to send logs to admins for manual review before deletion.

Advanced Matchmaking Tools

• Permanent Collab History

  Maintain a permanent ledger of past successful collab partners. Need to team up again down the road? Bypass the queue and re-initiate a connection instantly using a single connection slot.

• VTCode "Friend-Codes"

  Share your unique platform code on social media. Other streamers can input your code to skip the matchmaking algorithm entirely and pitch a collab straight to you.

  Note: Only outgoing connections consume a slot. Accepted slots refresh on the 1st of every month.

• Mutual Referrals

  Act as a community matchmaker. If you have successfully collaborated with two different streamers, spend a resource-limited referral to introduce them to one another.

  Note: Referrals don’t use connection slots for either party, but require a dual-approval and last the same 7 days as a regular connection.

Algorithm & Integrations

• Recommended List

  Instantly view top-tier featured profiles who share many tags or have used a platform Boost to find like-minded creators.

• Optional Steam Integration

  Securely connect your Steam library to match with creators playing the exact same multiplayer or niche titles.

  Privacy priority: Easily hide your individual games from your matching criteria to protect your streaming brand. Only games and their steam IDs are pulled from your steam profile and saved, nothing else.

• Integrated Calendar

  Interactive Collab & Events Calendar. Your one-stop shop for collab planning!

  Privacy priority: Event details always remain private, time slots are public to make finding common dates & times easier. You can use it as a standalone feature or integrated with matching. It's up to you!
