Meeno
Meeno is an AI-powered relationship mentor founded by former Tinder CEO Renate Nyborg. Built on large language models with input from clinicians and relationship experts, the app gives people private, non-judgmental, 24/7 guidance on friendships, family, work and romance. After finding that most of its users were young men, Meeno leaned into voice-based practice for dating and social confidence - positioning itself as a 'Duolingo for dating.' It is backed by Sequoia Capital, Andrew Ng's AI Fund and NEA.
Renate Nyborg
Renate Nyborg is the founder and CEO of Meeno, a generative-AI app teaching people - mostly young men - how to build real relationships, which she frames as a fight against loneliness she rates 'on par with climate change.' She was the first woman to run Tinder and previously led Apple's App Store subscriptions in Europe and built Headspace's first international product and marketing org. Half Norwegian, half Dutch, raised across four countries and fluent in five languages, she studied philosophy at Cambridge in her third language. Meeno has raised about $5 million from Sequoia, Andrew Ng's AI Fund and NEA, and has pivoted from text advice toward voice-based practice scenarios it calls the 'Duolingo of dating.'
