Marriage Pact

Marriage Pact is a research-driven matchmaking company, born as a 2017 Stanford economics class project, that runs an annual values-based questionnaire on college campuses. Instead of judging looks or swiping, students answer roughly 70 questions about their deepest values, and a stable-matching algorithm pairs each person with their single most compatible 'backup plan' on campus. Founded by Liam McGregor and Sophia Sterling-Angus, it has expanded from one campus to more than 100 schools and over 600,000 participants, and raised a $5M seed round in 2022 to keep building relationship technology.
