The topical matching is horrible. I tried two very different topical areas and got the same candidates in the same order. Likely there are just not enough candidates, or their demo is fake. Hard to make an app like this because it needs a big user base, and the first people to try a service like this are the most desperate. Plus there are dozens of companies trying to make co-founder finders. It is one of the most common ideas presented in startup communities, which also undermines the ability to get lots of users. Finally, apps and companies that prey on inexperienced founders are a Bad Thing (tm), since they play into the false belief that anyone can start a company and get rich.

Very slick marketing! But too slick! I feel misled.
I'd suggest having a web version.
Here's my user test: https://news.pub/?try=https://www.youtube.com/embed/JTfd4uFZ...
I am surprised the domain name coffeespace was available or did you have to buy it?
App looks pretty slick. Well done.
I'm not a founder but this seems like a super fun idea!
