AI speed and reliability, more flexible preference editing

This release sharpens the AI pipeline so it moves faster, avoids false negatives, and scales under load — while also making preference editing smoother.

What's new

Faster, more reliable AI ranking

Match ranking now dismisses low-probability matches earlier, so pool transparency metrics update more responsively as you add information. We also tuned early-stage criteria to reduce false negatives, keeping promising candidates in play longer.

A major infrastructure upgrade ensures the AI remains reliable as our member pool continues to grow rapidly.

Flexible preference editing

When editing a preference, you're no longer forced to merge or split entries if you provide more than one. If you prefer, the AI can interpret multiple preferences within a single chip.

Unified Preferences page and smarter preference ranking

Editing and ranking your preferences is now a much smoother, easier, and faster experience.

What's new

Edit and rank in one place

We merged the preferences editor and the preferences ranking view, so you can now add, edit, categorize, and rank every preference in a single place.

Leaner preference descriptions

Copy on the preference ranking page is now simplified so each preference is easier to scan and update quickly.

Smarter auto-ranking

Initial preference rankings now better reflect your stated priorities based on your original input, so you spend less time re-ordering them manually.

More fluid drag & drop

We tuned the drag-and-drop interaction for a smoother, more responsive feel and better flow.

2025-10-15-faster-early-ranking

Faster early ranking, clearer transparency, and polish

Today's update is focused on speeding up top-of-funnel matching, sharpening UI clarity, and fixing a handful of issues.

What's new

Quant-only early ranking pipeline

We added a fast first-pass stage that uses structured (quantitative) signals to quickly evaluate candidates at the top of the funnel, deferring heavier semantic/embedding work to later stages. This allows for quicker initial rank matching and a more efficient pipeline.

Faster preference ranking

Preferences now appear on the Preferences page much sooner after completing the Basic Preferences module, allowing you to rank your preferences immediately after submitting them.

Better handling of ethnicity preferences

We improved how preference constraints are interpreted and applied so rankings and transparency stay consistent with user-provided inputs.

Clearer pool transparency ring

Segment colors and widths on the pool transparency ring have been updated so categories are more visually distinct and easier to scan.

2025-10-02-engagement-emails

Engagement emails, gentler prompts, clearer completion

Today's update focuses on keeping momentum in your first weeks, reducing interruptions, and making skipped items obvious so you can get matched faster.

What's new

Onboarding email cadence

We now send a thoughtful email cadence during your first weeks on Keeper so you can stay engaged without guesswork. These nudges help you build a stronger profile, provide clarity into the process, and clearly explain where you are in your journey. You can unsubscribe anytime via the "unsubscribe" link in the email footer.

Less intrusive step-skipping warnings

We reduced the frequency of the step-skipping warning modal so it appears only when it's truly helpful. This helps you maintain flow, especially during long sessions.

"Incomplete" icon and tooltip across modules and cards

Where questions were skipped, you'll now see a universal incomplete icon with a tooltip explaining what's missing. This makes it easier to spot and fill gaps, which strengthens your matching signal and shortens your path to your best match.

2025-09-19-keyboard-first

Keyboard-first navigation

You can now move through every question in every module without a mouse, using only your keyboard. It's faster, smoother, and more accessible for everyone.

How it works

  • Tab — move to the next interactive element
  • Shift + Tab — move to the previous element
  • Arrow Keys (↑/↓/←/→) — select answers on multiple choice questions and adjust sliders
  • Search and add fields: type to search, use ↑/↓ to highlight, press Enter to select/add

While the examples above call out common field types, the mouseless UX is implemented consistently across all question types to feel natural and consistent, reacting how you'd expect.

If anything feels off or a particular field doesn't behave as expected, let us know! We're continuing to refine keyboard interactions based on your feedback.

2025-09-09-drag-anywhere-autosave

Drag-anywhere ranking, autosave, and polish

Today's update makes drag-and-drop ranking smoother, saves as you go, and tidies up rough edges across the user experience.

What's new

Drag-anywhere rank-ordering

You can now drag and drop a rank-order item from anywhere on its bar — not just the drag handle. This allows you to reorder faster with fewer mis-drags as you prioritize.

Autosave for Preferences & Traits dashboards

Every change now saves automatically when updating your preferences or personal information. No extra clicks, and it's safe to navigate away at any time.

2025-09-02-pool-transparency

Improved pool transparency and algorithm updates

We shipped several engine improvements that make your progress easier to read, speed up matchmaking, and prepare the platform for much larger scale.

What’s new

Improved pool transparency

We tightened how pool statistics are computed and aligned them directly to our evaluation stages. When a candidate enters the final stages of diligence, you’ll now see a “Promising match” indicator in Pool Transparency, so you’ll know when we’re close to a decision and what (if anything) is left for you to do.

Demonstration of improve pool transparency metrics

3x faster first-stage match scoring

We optimized the first pass of the scoring pipeline, eliminating a major bottleneck and delivering a 3x match evaluation speed improvement. This enables our algorithm to score, filter, and re-score broader candidate sets much faster. Updates to your information and preferences now propagate through the system more quickly with less lag.

NLP profile embeddings → dedicated vector database

We migrated profile embeddings to a dedicated vector database designed for high-volume similarity search.

Why it matters

  • Scalability: supports much larger candidate pools without degrading retrieval times.
  • Better recall at speed: efficient nearest-neighbor queries improve semantic matching while keeping latency low.
  • Cleaner versioning: safer rollouts when we refresh embeddings or models.

2025-08-28-preference-ranking

Preference ranking

You can now edit and rank your preferences in order of importance so we can fully understand the person you’re looking for and honor your real-world trade-offs when thinking about potential matches.

Demonstration of preference ranking

How it works

Open your Preferences view at the top of the page and add or edit the preferences that matter to you. The preferences you’ve already provided are auto-populated, with our best ranking assumptions based on how you originally described them.

Then, place each preference in a tier to establish their importance. The tiers are Non-negotiable, Very important, Somewhat important, and Nice to have.

Rankings within tiers matters, too. For example, the top item in “Very important” carries more weight than the second or third.

These tiers and ranks help our matching algorithm interpret what preferences must be met, what should be optimized for, and what’s optional, providing clarity for you and for us.
