Competitive Advantage
Key USPs versus competitors are:
- We are the only dating app that does not only offer suitable partner candidates but offers also help with starting a relationship.
- We use analyzing tools to see how our users perform in our service and what kind of feedback they get from other users. Based on that information we can offer the right type of additional services.
- Lovena is the only dating related app offering virtual space between chat and meeting live. It allows the new couples to get to know each other, and find similar interests but in a safe space.
Round Details
InLove Group has already raised €105k in private capital from business angels and €130k in loans to develop the Lovena app, which means that, after this investment round is secured, Lovena is fully ready for international commercial uptake.
We aim to close this pre-seed round by 20 April 2023. €10k is the minimum investment ticket size.
