Intro: value of Mate Bot

As an intro, let's think about matchmaking activity. Yes, one from these apps with profile cards, likes and a lot of different people to swipe. You can find friends, relations or at least socialize a bit by choosing through different people.

We at Mate thought: what if people were able to smoothly create that sort of matchmaking activity for themselves? What if one could make a custom matchmaking process for a particular group?

Professional community, class of students, hobby club, industry event - there are a lot of groups with tens to tens of thousands members who barely know each other. And they don't mind to make new friends and contacts.
It would be beneficial to setup that "matchmaking activity" in the groups for members to smoothly connect based on mutual interest.

In other words, let any group has it's own matchmaking reel!

This is the idea behind the Mate. In the Mate Bot you can
- Create matchmaking reel for your group to make community more connected.
- Join matchmaking reel of some group to meet new people.

Alright, you've registered in the Mate Bot. Let's see what you can do.

Join a group's reel

You can join a matching reel of one or your Telegram groups.

Reel entry tab looks like this. You see available reels to join:

Remember that since you can see reels for your groups only, there might be no reels available. But no worries! You can always join Friends of Mate group and check out our reel of Mate early adopters💚

Seeing people on a group reel

On the reel you can look through intros of other people, one after another:

There are two reactions available.

"Wave" - means you are interested in a person. Use it to show the person that you don't mind to connect or just stay in touch.

"Next" - if you are not ready to connect with a person, just move on to the next one.
It is fine, you can change the reaction later on a members page.

Check the reel from time to time, it might have new people to see!

Open reel members page

Once you've seen some people at the reel, their intros are available for you at the members list. There you can check match status and see profiles once again.

Match status to the left of a name indicates if both people have a mutual interest. When there is a match (👋👋 on the screen), you are shown a Telegram contact. "?" sign signals that person waved to you but you haven't seen them yet. Good opportunity to respond right away.

"/show" command opens person's profile to read and react.

Mate strives to become a multiple-times benefit for you. So, when you feel you could use some help, don't hesitate to revisit members list for warm connections.

Create a reel

The most rewarding, you can create your own reel!

Add the bot to your group to create a reel. There may be additional steps for different types of groups. Check a "Create reel" tab in the bot for comments.

Reel creator capabilities

We provide reel creators with means to monitor the reel activity and interact with group members. Creator capabilities are available on the reel's page "Admin panel" tab.

There you can see Reel stats on how many people from the community have connected in the Mate Bot. Data is overall, no interpersonal actions disclosed.

Also there is an ability to create Custom tags. Use tags to help right people find each other quicker. Now you can define roles and turn your reel into matching platform! For example "startup - investor", "landlord - tenant", "hiring - looking for job".

To bring more people to your reel and enlighten community there are options to invite people and feature member. Make sure to check them out.
