Abstract: Techniques for generating curated matches among individuals include supplying, to a client device, data for display in a graphical user interface, the data including a set of prompts to an individual to specify criteria for identification of one or more other individuals. The criteria is received from the client device and used to identify potential matches between the individual and one or more other individuals from a pool of individuals. A subset of up to a predetermined number of potential matches is selected from the identified potential matches. Profile information for each potential match in the subset of potential matches is supplied to the client device at a scheduled time.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for presenting user profiles on a user interface. In some implementations, a server receives a request to view profiles for each of one or more other users from a client device associated with a requesting user. The server applies matching criteria to a profile of the requesting user and profiles for respective users to identify profiles for a sequence of profiles. The server enables sequential display of information representative of the identified profiles on a user interface of the client device, including enabling display of first information representative of a first profile of the identified profiles, determining a user review attribute for the first profile, dynamically adjusting the sequence of profiles based on the user review attribute, and enabling display of second information representative of a second profile of the identified profiles in the adjusted sequence of profiles.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for safe social networking environment. In some implementations, a server receives a request to activate a live sharing feature, the live sharing feature enabling access to a location and a status of a first user. The server obtains data identifying a set of trusted users for the first user. The server determines that an in-person engagement of the first user with a second user has initiated. In response to determining that the engagement has initiated, the server transmits, to each trusted user, data indicating that the first user has initiated the engagement and location data of the first user. The server obtains a status of the first user's engagement with the second user. The server provides, to each trusted user, the status of the first user's engagement and the location data of the first user.

Abstract: A method for automatically categorizing groups of users in a social network, and using the categories to propose matches between groups or users and groups includes accessing content shared within a group in a social network application, processing the shared content with at least one machine learning model to determine labels for the content, determining categories for the group based on the labels for the content, accessing matching criteria for a user of the social network application, generating a match between the user and the group based on the matching criteria for the user and the categories for the group, supplying data indicative of the match to a client device of the user, receiving a match acceptance from the client device, and in response to receiving the match acceptance, providing the user access to the group in the social network application.

Abstract: A computer implemented method includes supplying to a user at a client device a prompt to contact a matched individual. A proposed communication from the user to the matched individual is monitored. The proposed communication is compared to a set of effective communication policies to selectively identify an effective communication policy violation. A warning is supplied to the user in response to the effective communication policy violation. A signal is received from the user to send a completed communication to the matched individual. Network routing of the completed communication from the client device to the matched individual is enabled.

Abstract: A computer implemented method includes supplying to a client device prompts for a first individual to specify matching criteria for a potential introduction to a second individual. The matching criteria includes a filter to sort a pool of individuals by a facial feature categorized by a facial recognition module. Matching criteria from the client device are collected. Matches between the first individual and a pool of individuals are generated based upon the matching criteria. The matches are supplied to the client device. A match acceptance by the first individual of the second individual is collected. Attributes of the second individual are verified to selectively establish a verified status. Network communication between the first individual and the second individual are enabled in response to the verified status.
