  • Publication number: 20210264479
    Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for connecting similar subscription users. The system may receive a request from a requesting subscription living user to connect to a similar subscription living user. The system may execute a similarity algorithm to identify one or more similar subscription living users. The system may transmit a link to the requesting subscription living user for display on a client device of the requesting subscription living user, the link enabling the requesting subscription living user to contact a similar subscription living user of the one or more similar subscription living users without providing personally identifiable information of the similar subscription living user. The system may connect, in response to an input from the requesting subscription living user to the client device, the requesting subscription living user to the one or more similar subscription living users.
