How Aisha and Kato matched at 91% compatibility

Aisha almost didn't finish the compatibility quiz. 'It felt long,' she laughs, 'but by the last section I was answering more honestly than I expected to.' A week later, Nuvella surfaced Kato's profile with a 91% compatibility score.

Their first conversation lasted four hours. 'We didn't talk about jobs or hobbies first,' Kato says. 'We talked about what we wanted out of life. The app had already done that work for us.'

A year on, they credit the quiz for skipping the small talk that usually stalls new relationships. 'It's not magic,' Aisha says. 'It just asks the questions people are usually too nervous to ask on a first date.'
