How it works

Three steps to real connection

No swiping. No algorithms judging your photos. Just honest answers and genuine people on the other side.

01

Answer 5 questions

Every day, Ribbit brings you 5 playful questions rooted in Big 5 personality science and Schwartz’s value theory. No right answers — just you.

02

Get your matches

Drake curates your daily match posters — people who genuinely align with who you are. A coin refresh lets you see more, but mindless skipping has a cost.

03
🌿

Connect & grow

Post task completions to the feed, join communities near you, and build friendships rooted in shared values — not just shared selfies.

Your profile

A poster,
not a profile.

Your Pond profile is a beautiful, customizable poster — not a boring list of facts. Pick backgrounds, textures, fonts, and colours that actually feel like you.

🎨
Fully yours
Choose from dozens of backgrounds and textures. Unlock premium ones with coins you earn through daily tasks.
🧠
Personality-first
Your Big 5 traits and core values are front and centre — so your match already knows who you are before saying hello.
📲
Share anywhere
Export your poster to Instagram, WhatsApp, or anywhere else. Your Pond identity, wherever you go.
