Overview
Smitten is the future of online dating, where people actually have fun being single. Smitten meets the needs of an entirely new set of human beings, Generation Z, or centennials (1997-2015). People born after 1997, never knew a world without the internet and have entertainment written in their DNA. The landscape in online dating is about to change because the demand for something more fun, more entertaining, and more engaging is entering adulthood.
