The Glii app, founded by Kaushik along with Teya Sharma, Rohit Sharma and Ankur Chawla, has so far 45,000 downloads and 15,000 monthly active users. Glii uses AI to learn a user’s behaviour and then recommends a suitable match. Instead of inviting a stranger home or agreeing to go to his place, meeting at a restaurant offers both a chance to figure out if there is chemistry before taking it to the next level. Once you get a match, you can book a restaurant on the Glii app, and meet in a “safe” spot. Having worked with the Oberoi Group and Marriott International, Kaushik wanted to merge dating and hospitality in his app. “We are giving you a match, we are giving you a restaurant,” he adds. Glii, Kaushik says, is for those who are seriously looking for a friend or relationship. Of course, there have also been cases where users have made a genuine connection that has turned into a serious relationship. While platforms like Grindr may provide gay men with temporary relief from their anxiety and loneliness, the platform has always been seen as a casual dating site.
