Struggling to come up with date night ideas? Try this new app I built for couples!

I’m a AAA video game developer in the U.S., and like many in the industry, I’ve been feeling the weight of recent layoffs. So I decided to take the opportunity to try something new: frontend development and hopping on the AI coding wave.

I also just moved to a new city with my partner, and we kept asking: "What should we do this weekend?" Instead of arguing or defaulting to Netflix again, I decided to build a tool to solve that.

That’s how I ended up launching my first side project on product hunt: DateDuet — a real-time, AI-powered app that helps couples generate curated, venue-based date ideas together.

  • One person starts a room and shares the link

  • Both people choose what they’re into

  • The app shows swipeable date ideas (with real spots you can actually go to), and you both vote on what sounds fun

It’s super quick to try, works on phones, and doesn’t need any sign-up or anything. I’d love to get your thoughts on it — especially:

  • Anything I could improve or tweak?

  • If there were a paid version, what would make it worth it to you?

    Thanks, and I hope it helps a few couples out there make date night a little more fun

    Here’s the link if you want to try it: https://www.date-duet.com

    Would appreciate upvotes on the producthunt launch page if you guys like it!

Just gave it a try and really love the no sign-up experience! The flow is smooth and intuitive. One feature I’d be excited to see is the ability to book locations directly through the app - that would definitely make me more open to paying. A credit-based model could also work well, so users only pay for what they use.
