About Unimatcha

We’re building an AI of your own.

Everyone gets their own AI, Mochii. It helps you think through study, life and what’s next, and find your people. We’re starting on campus.

Our direction

From campus, into the world.

The change we see, and where we’re going.

An animated film of about 40 seconds, in seven scenes and an end card, about the change we see and where we’re going:
  1. From this generation on, everyone grows up with AI. A white circle rises over a horizon, with a small Mochii asleep at its shoulder.
  2. Between campus and the world, you start deciding for yourself. The circle shrinks to a point and sets out from “campus” along a line towards “the world”.
  3. An AI that knows you, and works only for you. The small Mochii grows, wakes up, and looks at you.
  4. It helps you think. You decide. Three identical paths open in front of you, none of them marked; Mochii only watches you. You weigh each one, pick one, and walk it.
  5. It brings you to people, not instead of them. People appear around you and you connect with some of them; Mochii steps aside and connects to no one.
  6. People who get each other, connected on their own campus. The outline of one university surrounds everyone, people connect with each other, and each person has a small Mochii of their own.
  7. Everyone who leaves university leaves better than they arrived. The university shrinks to a small square at the left of the horizon, and you travel right along it, growing into a larger circle.
  8. End card: Unimatcha. An AI of your own. Starting on campus. app.unimatcha.ai.

Two storylines

Where we are, and where we’re heading.

Unimatcha today

Why we built it

We were tired of endless swiping, so we built the opposite. One round a week, revealed to everyone at once, every Friday. Fewer people, none of them an afterthought. No scores on anyone: a reveal is a person, their school and the things they love. Partners or friends, nothing counts until you both say yes. And around it all, a wall that belongs to your own campus, because university is more than who you meet on a Friday.

我们受够了无尽滑动的快餐式社交，于是反着来：一周只有一轮，每周五所有人同时揭晓。宁愿少遇见几个，也不敷衍任何一个。不给任何人打分——揭晓的是一个人：ta 的学校，ta 喜欢的事。恋人也好，好友也好，双方都点头才算数。在这之外，还有一面只属于你学校的墙，因为大学生活，不只是周五遇见的那个人。

Where we’re heading

A direction, not a dated promise

We equip students with AI for the step from campus into the world, so they grow into better versions of themselves.

  1. An AI that knows youStudy, life and what’s next: Mochii helps you think them through. Meeting people is one part of it.

  2. Starting on campusThe UK first, then English-taught universities worldwide. Each one, for every student there.

  3. More tools in the worksWhat exactly, we’ll say when it’s ready.

Four things that hold as we grow

  • It works for you
  • It helps you think. You decide.
  • It brings you to people, not instead of them
  • What it knows stays yours

Meet Mochii. Tap for a new mood.

Built by students

Every detail, argued over.

Unimatcha grew out of campus life, and we are our own users. We know what it’s like to start university in a new city: a lot of decisions to make, people you hope to meet, and a campus you wish had a wall of its own.

What Mochii should help with and what it should leave to you, what the questionnaire asks, how anonymity works, what a blurred profile keeps private — each one settled by students who will use it themselves.

We want to give back, too. Student unions get a free console to run their wall and their events, and we want to back the unions doing the real work.

For student unions

Timeline

Not launched yet. Built so far.

Unimatcha is still in beta. This lists only what has actually happened, month by month. Nothing ahead gets a date.

  1. Work begins

    The first code went in. Back then it was only an idea for matching people on campus.

  2. BETA

    The web app opens

    We named it Unimatcha and opened the web app at unimatcha.ai: weekly matching, a campus wall for each university, polls that go up after review, and student-union events with tickets.

  3. Tools for student unions

    Unions began checking tickets in with a QR scan from their console, and the campus wall got a page for pinned notices.

  4. Mochii gets to work

    Mochii became the app icon, and an AI you can talk to: mention it under a post, or chat with it on its own.

  5. The iPhone app goes into testing

    The iPhone app reached TestFlight for the first time and went into internal testing.

  6. Our principles, written down

    Our brand and values were settled: four principles for the AI, five values for matching. Every trade-off since is checked against them.

  7. Now

    Where we are today

    Still in beta. The web app is open at app.unimatcha.ai, and the iPhone app is in testing.
