How an evening works
You join from home, with the app open and your headphones in. An evening takes about an hour.
Pick an evening in Utrecht, say Thursday at 20:30. Each group has a fixed number of seats, so the numbers stay even. If your group is full, you join the waitlist.
At the start time you meet six people, one after another, for six minutes each. No photos and no names. An icebreaker is on screen if you need one.
After each talk the app asks you, privately, whether you want to talk again. The other person never sees your answer.
When the evening ends, everyone gets their results at the same time. For each mutual yes you see a first name and photos, and you can start a chat.
After every talk
Only you see your answer. A yes counts only if they said yes too. If they didn't, nobody ever finds out.
The reveal
During a talk you see a timer and two soft lights: yours and theirs. No face, no name, no age. You find out how someone listens and what makes them laugh before you know what they look like.
Your photos stay hidden until you both say yes. Then you each see the other's first name, age and photos, and the chat opens. A person on our team checks every photo before a match can see it.
Meet in person
Ridele organises drinks, dinners and walks in public places in Utrecht. Anyone can book a ticket, and everyone with a match gets an invitation. You don't have to plan a first date alone with a stranger.
Safety
If women don't feel at ease, an evening doesn't work for anyone. So when comfort and growth pull different ways, we choose comfort.
You can do it during every talk and in every chat. Block and report are one tap each. A report ends the talk for both of you, and you never meet that person again.
Nobody sees your photos, surname or profile until you both say yes. We never ask for or pass on phone numbers.
We point first meetings to hosted Ridele events, where a host knows who is there.
Everyone is 18 or older. People on our team review photos and look at every report within 24 hours.
Questions
Single adults, 18 and over, in Utrecht. The first evenings are for women who want to meet men and men who want to meet women. Evenings for other groups will follow, and we'll say when.
Everyone pays the same price for an evening, whoever they are. We never price by gender. We'll publish prices for evenings and meetups when booking opens.
Because a photo tells you very little about whether you'll enjoy someone's company, and a six-minute talk tells you a lot. It also takes the pressure off: nobody is judged on a picture.
Tap Block or Report. The talk ends straight away for both of you. The other person sees the same message as when a call drops, and the two of you are never paired again.
No. Ridele doesn't record your talks.
Nobody. Ridele uses it only to put you in the right evenings. You give it with a separate consent, and you can withdraw that consent in the app.
Through a chat in the app. Ridele doesn't share phone numbers, and you never have to give yours.
