Wingman’s AI-powered platform provides affordable, expert dating guidance to help men overcome loneliness and build meaningful relationships
Wingman, an artificial intelligence company focused on the dating industry, is stepping up to address a growing social issue: loneliness among men.
By leveraging advanced AI technology, Wingman provides tailored, expert dating advice to reduce loneliness and improve social relationships.
This innovation comes when social isolation is rising, particularly among men, as digital communication and societal shifts impact traditional avenues of forming connections.
“Loneliness is a crisis of the information age,” said Robert Mariani, co-founder and CEO of Wingman. “With the rise of digital platforms and the changing social landscape, many men find it harder than ever to form meaningful connections. At Wingman, we aim to change that through AI, making expert relationship advice accessible, personalized, and effective.”
Addressing the Loneliness Epidemic
Wingman aims to address what many psychologists and sociologists have called a “loneliness epidemic,” particularly affecting young men.
According to multiple studies, men aged 18 to 35 report higher levels of loneliness compared to other demographic groups, with fewer close relationships and limited avenues for support.
This loneliness has far-reaching consequences, including negative impacts on mental health and social wellbeing.
It is linked to higher rates of depression, anxiety, and even physical health problems. Wingman’s mission is to use AI to combat this trend by offering expert, practical advice to help men navigate modern dating landscapes and foster genuine, meaningful relationships.
“AI allows us to scale human expertise in a way that’s never been possible before,” Mariani said. “Traditional dating coaches or therapists are expensive and can be out of reach for many. Wingman democratizes that expertise, providing helpful, honest advice at a fraction of the cost.”
AI: The Future of Relationship Coaching
Wingman stands apart from existing AI tools by offering a solution that addresses the limitations of general-purpose AI platforms like ChatGPT.
While AI has been successfully implemented in various fields, its application in sensitive areas like dating and personal relationships has often fallen short.
AI platforms, such as ChatGPT, can sometimes give broad, generic advice that may not address the nuances of human relationships.
Wingman overcomes this limitation by combining artificial intelligence with curated, expert-backed relationship advice, offering personalized guidance beyond surface-level suggestions.
“People often turn to AI for advice, but they don’t always get the depth or relevance they need, especially when it comes to personal matters like dating,” Mariani said. “Wingman focuses on delivering practical and actionable advice, designed to help men improve their chances of forming real, lasting connections.”
How Wingman Works
Wingman analyzes the user’s dating experiences, preferences, and goals to deliver tailored advice in real-time.
Users interact with the AI platform through a simple, conversational interface, where they can ask questions and receive customized feedback on various aspects of dating and relationships.
The AI technology behind Wingman allows it to assess common challenges, from understanding social cues to crafting compelling messages for online dating platforms.
It is designed to offer advice grounded in both psychological research and real-world expertise, providing users with insights they can immediately apply to improve their dating outcomes.
“With Wingman, we’re not just giving users generic advice like ‘be confident’ or ‘be yourself,’” Mariani said. “We’re offering specific guidance based on their unique circumstances. The goal is to empower men to become better partners and communicators, ultimately reducing loneliness and fostering more meaningful relationships.”
Affordable and Accessible Expertise
One of Wingman’s core missions is to make relationship expertise affordable and accessible to a broad audience.
Traditional dating coaches can charge hundreds or even thousands of dollars for personalized advice, pricing out many people who could benefit from their services.
Wingman’s AI platform offers a low-cost alternative, democratizing expert advice and making it accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
Using AI, Wingman can offer personalized, high-quality relationship coaching for a fraction of the cost of traditional methods.
This scalability is essential for addressing loneliness on a societal level, where expensive one-on-one coaching isn’t a feasible solution for everyone.
“Men are facing unique challenges when it comes to dating and relationships,” Mariani said. “But the solutions don’t have to be expensive or out of reach. With Wingman, we’re offering an affordable and effective tool, making expert dating advice available to anyone who needs it.”
A Vision for the Future
Wingman’s mission extends beyond simply offering dating advice; the company is focused on using AI to address more significant social issues related to loneliness and social isolation.
As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, Wingman plans to expand its capabilities, offering even more personalized and nuanced advice in areas beyond dating, such as general relationship building and mental health.
“We believe that AI has the potential to revolutionize how people connect and communicate,” Mariani said. “At Wingman, we’re committed to using that potential to make a real difference in people’s lives.”
