The problem we see

Planning fulfilling dates becomes increasingly challenging for couples as their relationship deepens, leading to two major sources of friction: personal memory loss and external information overload.

Internally, the lack of a shared, reliable memory archive often results in stress and conflict, as couples struggle to recall previous activities, leading to frustration (e.g., repeating a disliked date or arguing over "I told you before"). Simultaneously, the search for new and meaningful experiences is hindered by an overwhelming and fragmented digital landscape. In cities like Singapore, genuine reviews and activity ideas, like for food and events, are scattered across various social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and various blogs.

This fragmentation is compounded by discovery being heavily influenced by hype and paid sponsorships, making it difficult for couples to discern what is genuinely worth trying, affordable, or suited to their specific, shared tastes. This combined burden of struggling to recall the past and wasting time on low-quality discovery for the future means couples often default to generic, unsatisfying plans, detracting from the focus on the quality of their shared experience.

The core issue is the absence of a centralised, personalised system that both remembers past shared enjoyment and uses that data to inform future, high-quality, local recommendations.

Our Solution (Date our Dates)

Overview

Date our Dates solution is an AI-powered, two-part Notion database system that serves as both a personalised relationship memory archive and a real-time, taste-aware discovery engine for activities and food in Singapore.

Core Components

AI-Powered Memory and Tracking System:
- Couples input quick, unstructured notes about their dates, food, and experiences.
- The LLM, powered by Notion MCP, instantly processes these messy notes and converts them into structured data across two linked Notion databases: Date Activities and Food Experiences.
- It generates a Couple's 'Enjoyment Profile' by analysing historical ratings and notes (e.g., preference for cuisine, budget, activity type).
Taste-Aware Discovery Engine:
- The system acts as a real-time curator, pulling the newest food spots and events immediately from trusted local Singapore sources (e.g., via RSS feeds).
- Future date suggestions are personalised based on the couple's unique 'Enjoyment Profile' and filtered by the newest localised content.
- Each suggestion is a complete plan, including a budget, location links, and links to the relevant Food Experiences database entries.

The Notion MCP provides the secure, standardised bridge required for the AI agent to execute complex, structured operations within the user's workspace without manual API setup.

Value Proposition and Target Audience

Date our Dates fundamentally shifts the focus of date planning from manual, stressful effort to confident, personalised experience for couples.
