You are visionaries, and you were ahead of every one of us. In a single episode you said what a whole industry has been groping towards for twenty years: how painfully hard it is to find your person in the real world, and how simple it becomes once technology is turned towards people instead of against them.","mission.dedication2","You wrote it as a warning, and we saw hope in it and could not walk away. Thank you for thinking years ahead, and for telling it in a way that stays with a person for good. We will take it from here. With enormous respect and love.","mission.desc","Why we build GLUE: to see in advance how people will fit together, and to build couples, friendships and teams that last for years.","mission.kicker","our mission","mission.p1","A couple splits up after three years over something you could notice in the first month. Friends fall out over money. A startup with a good product dies because its two founders understood the word “together” differently. A team falls apart in its first crisis. It costs people years of their lives, their health and their money, and almost always it could have been seen before it happened.","mission.p2","For twenty years technology has matched people by a picture: a photo, a profile, a swipe, a CV. That is how people choose a partner, a business partner, an employee. But a picture is silent about what matters most: how someone behaves when things get hard, how they share money, decisions and exhaustion, whether they keep their word.","mission.p3","GLUE looks at exactly that. It gets to know each person in a conversation, with no questionnaires and almost no personal data, turns their personality into a precise model and lives through thousands of versions of your shared life, friendship or venture. Behind it stands a large system: a network of AI models that talk, calculate and analyse the result together.","mission.p4","That way you can know in advance who you will share a long life with, who you can build a company with without falling out over the first argument about equity, and who to bring onto a team so it holds under pressure. And see not only the risk but the way out: what to agree on before the conflict begins.","mission.p5","I have been lucky enough to spend years next to someone I love, and I know how much that is worth. When someone next to you understands you, values you and loves you, everything changes: work, sleep, health, the person you wake up as. It is not a luxury and not “private life”. It is the foundation, and millions of people are living without it right now.","mission.p6","A society where couples and partnerships last for years, teams work in harmony, and there are fewer and fewer conflicts that could have been avoided. For this we use the strongest technologies there are: neural networks, simulations, AI agents talking to each other. And we use them only for the good of people: your data is not sold and does not go to advertisers, and no one will see your conversations.","mission.p7","Whether you are looking for a partner for life, a friend, a cofounder or a team, GLUE finds the people with whom things will work out for you, and tells you so not with hope but with a calculation. Our mission is to bring this to people as soon as possible.","mission.title","Our mission · GLUE","mission.try","Try it","mission.watch","Watch the episode","site.contacts","Contact","site.credit","author and maker of GLUE","site.creditPS","P.S. do not forget to invite me to the wedding","site.desc","GLUE lives through a thousand versions of your life together and shows whether you fit together.

GLUE gets to know each person in a conversation and lives through a thousand versions of your shared life or shared venture.","site.faq.a2","Instead of swiping through photos, GLUE lives through a thousand versions of your life with each candidate.

Your friend talks to GLUE on their own, and once both portraits are ready, you see how well you click and where you might fall out.","site.faq.a4","Each of you talks to GLUE on your own, and GLUE lives through a thousand versions of your venture. Before you split equity, you see which decisions you will split on and what to agree on up front. This is no small thing: Noam Wasserman, who studied founders at Harvard Business School, writes that 65% of high-potential startups fail because of conflict between their founders (The Founder’s Dilemmas, 2012). And according to Carta, by year three a cofounder has already left roughly one startup in five (Carta). These things are cheaper to settle at the start.","site.faq.a5","GLUE simulates how a team behaves under pressure: who makes the call and where the crack appears. To bring your team in, write to us.","site.faq.a6","GLUE is a large system: a network of AI models, each with its own job. One talks with you, others read the conversation and turn each person’s personality into a vector: scales of character and values, each with its own score and a measure of confidence. The vectors of the two of you build a space of variants: thousands of versions of your shared life or shared venture. Events in it are not drawn blindly. Chance decides when a hardship arrives, and how each of you meets it and how it ends is set by your personalities. The Monte Carlo method lives through this space thousands of times. Thousands of outcomes add up to a distribution: the percentage shows the probability of a good ending, and the band around it shows how confident the calculation is. AI models work alongside the maths: they take the runs of the calculation and go through them again, event by event, along the usual, the best and the worst path. Then they analyse the runs (which dependencies recur, which scenarios come up most often) and write the breakdown from that. The calculation is reproducible: for the same pair it always gives the same answer.","site.faq.a7","No, it is not a questionnaire but a conversation, and it needs almost no personal data. GLUE does not ask for your surname, address or workplace: of the facts about you, your age, gender and city are enough. Our system builds a precise portrait from the way you talk about your life, even when you keep personal details to yourself. This is our own technology. The longer you talk, the more precise the portrait, and matching starts by itself once it knows enough.","site.faq.a8","Nobody, ever, no exceptions. The other person sees only a card and conclusions about the two of you.","site.faq.a9","We do not sell it or hand it to advertisers. You can delete your account at any time: after 30 days everything is erased except payment records, which carry no name. Privacy policy.","site.faq.q10","Is it free?","site.faq.a10","The conversation is free. Simulations cost karma: it comes with a Standard, Plus or Ultima subscription, with one-off packs, or free for simple steps.","site.faq.q11","And stars?","site.faq.a11","We have collected and built portraits of stars from years of their interviews, books, roles and appearances. You can check your compatibility with any of them: GLUE lives through a thousand versions of life with them using the same model and the same maths as with a living person. The portrait is built from public material; the star takes no part in GLUE. More about stars.","site.faq.q12","What is it based on?","site.faq.a12","The groundwork is Stanford research into digital twins. It showed that a language model can believably reproduce human behaviour (Stanford, 2023), and that a twin built from an interview answers questions almost the way the person themselves does two weeks later (Stanford, 2024). We extended this approach and built our own system out of specially configured neural networks: that is how GLUE came about. The risks of a shared life come from long-running studies of marriage (meta-analysis, 1995), the risks of a shared venture from data on tens of thousands of startups (Carta) and on the survival of new businesses (US Bureau of Labor Statistics). Thousands of lived variants add up to a statistical probability, not a guess from a questionnaire.","site.faq.q1","What is this?","site.faq.q2","I want a partner for life.

GLUE takes your portrait and the star’s and runs the two of you through a thousand shared lives: the first date, the first night, a shared flat, money, each other’s parents, holidays, fights and making up, the boredom of a Tuesday. In some of them you split by the third month, in others you last twenty years. You choose the span, from one evening to a whole life, and the run is not free: you see its price in karma before you agree.","sp.p3","Now the honest part. The portrait is built from open sources. The person on stage and the person at home are not always the same: interviews get edited, an image is built over years, and part of a life never gets written down anywhere. So a star’s portrait can be incomplete and inexact, and we say so plainly, not in small print at the bottom of the page.","sp.p4","There will be one exception.
