Women Leading the Way

Women are confidently reshaping the dating narrative, with 53% initiating conversations—a significant departure from tradition. Female-initiated chats last longer and are 26% more likely to result in successful match, such as ongoing conversations or in-person plans. This marks a pivotal move toward gender equality, highlighting the power of authenticity and boldness in forming connections.

Icebreakers Matter More Than Ever

Paying attention to the other person's profile proves far more engaging, with thoughtful openers making conversations 31% more likely to develop into meaningful exchanges.

Back to Classic First Date

Singles are continuing to pritotize thoughtful first-date experience.Last year, economic challenges saw Gen Z redefining first-date norms, with grocery shopping emerging as a fun, budget-friendly alternative to traditional venues. This year, Omi's findings reveal a shift back to more classic preferences, with 42% favoring cafes for their relaxed atmosphere, 28% opting for outdoor activities, and 19% enjoying casual dining.

Prioritizing Genuine Connections

Gen Z daters are open to being"tagged"by shared interests rather than external attributes. In fact, 57% of Omi's Gen Z users fill out more than five tags, with a 21% higher preference among women. The algorithm behind Omi's interest tags analyzes hidden connections to bring like-minded individuals together. AsDaniel Fok, Omi's Product Director, reveals:"With over three common interest tags, users can achieve an almost perfect match rate of nearly 100%."
