VIDA SelectRecenzje 

Came out of a long relationship last spring and my friends kept trying to pair me with people but none of those worked. A coworker told me she'd used VIDA and said I should try it. First date took about three weeks to happen. Felt slow but I get they need to figure out who fits. The dates have been much better than the random ones my friends would arrange. Just more on the same page about life stuff. Seeing someone now and it feels natural. Not how dating felt six months ago at all. Glad my coworker recommended it.

Francesca has facilitated an amazing experience which has resulted in success.

I found VIDA to be an excellent service in finding a dating partner. Francesca was highly engaged and invested in my search. I was very impressed with the quality of profile curation and personalized messaging they provided. I would recommend 10/10 for anyone looking for cost-effective matchmaking help!

Used a different matchmaking service last year, total waste. Random intros, felt like they pulled names from a hat. Signed up here not expecting much to be hoenst. My matchmaker Melina pushed back on some of my filters and explained why which caught me off guard. Turns out she was right. The matches were much stronger than my previous service. Only knock is communication between check-ins. There were stretches of 10+ days where I didnt hear anything so I'd end up reaching out myself. Met 5 women in the first couple of months, seeing one now who I wouldnt have picked based on a profile but we clicked in person. Giving it 4 stars because the slow responses frustrated me but the actual matching was solid.

They are professionals at matchmaking. They know what to ask and know how to keep a conversation going. I lack the patience and courage for this type of dating. They have helped me so much with my confidence. I’m grateful to be working with them.

I work from home running a small consulting business so I dont meet many people day to day. Dating apps felt weird, just swiping alone on my couch. Since I wanted help with this I figured hiring someone made sense. My matchmaker asked things during our first call that wouldnt show up in a profile. Like what my weekends look like and how I handle stress. Two months in I'd gone on three dates. Third one stuck. Been seeing him a couple months now. I went almost two years without a single date before signing up so yeah this mattered.

If you're on the fence about using a matchmaking service, I can confidently say that choosing VIDA Select was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

After carefully evaluating several options, VIDA Select stood out immediately—their success rate, personalized approach, and clear, consistent communication made the process feel both intentional and efficient. I also really appreciated the month-to-month structure, which made it feel like a smart investment rather than a long-term gamble.

What truly sets this experience apart is the quality of the matches. I didn’t waste time on endless, draining dates—instead, every introduction felt aligned and purposeful, ultimately leading me to a meaningful, serious relationship. It completely changed my experience of dating for the better.

And I cannot say enough about my matchmaker, Briona. She is exceptional—kind, intuitive, strategic, and genuinely invested in my success. I always felt supported and understood, and her guidance throughout the process was invaluable. She knew how to balance encouragement with honest insight, helping me navigate each step with confidence.

I’ve already recommended VIDA Select to friends, and I would absolutely do it again. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, high-quality approach to dating—with someone truly in your corner—this is it.

Working with Johanna Wise has been an exceptional experience. She is not only highly professional but also deeply intuitive and attentive. Her ability to understand my preferences and values made the entire process feel seamless and personalized. She consistently goes above and beyond, and her kindness and dedication truly set her apart. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a thoughtful and high quality matchmaking experience.

I am so happy I chose to work with Vida!
Francesca is my matchmaker and she is excellent! She is so responsive and helpful. So happy I’m working with her.
Before I found Vida, I worked with a local matchmaker that was a large upfront fee, and they only focused on the city that I live in. They were nice people, but I really did not connect with any of the dates and this was for over a year.
I have only been working with Vida for about a month and they have already set me up on 2 amazing dates where I really connected with the other person. The difference is that they are pulling from a much larger pool of people.
Plus instead of a large upfront fee, they just charge by the month, which is much more reasonable financially.
I wish I had chosen Vida from the start.
I cannot recommend them enough!

I want you to know how delighted I am working with Francesca and Vida. She and her team care to get to know me and understand what I am seeking in women I would date. They have provided many great candidates in a short period of time. I have worked with other services. But they have a very limited pool of people in and within 2 hours of the Tampa Bay area. The other services want to introduce me to people that are a 4 or 5 hour drive and, in some cases, would required an airplane ride to get to.

I have already referred them to a good friend that is also considering using a dating service.

Communication with me was very good and they quickly took my comments and feedback into account. I feel like they were serious about helping me find a relationship.

I took a chance on Vida.

Their approach advertises access to date at a more affordable model than most other matchmaking services I've looked at. It's not-conventional, they drive your already existing dating apps for you, which I didn't fully understand until the intake call.

It took ~1.5 months to get everything set up. They do use AI to help generate photos based on photo sets you give them. Which I didn't understand until the photo set was presented to me for approval. The team was very willing to make adjustments (i.e. use just actual photos of me) at my request though.

Now that we are rolling there has been surprisingly good results. I approve all matches to pursue. The team is able to chat with matches, coordinate/setup dates, and get phone numbers with pretty much no effort from me. Once I have a phone number I take it from there.

Overall I'm happy with the direction this is going - but I hope the team continues to refine and evolve the approach. It's important to be more clear about how the system works and the approach, ideally before the intake call.. and disclose the use of AI in the photo department prior to giving me the first look at photos for approval. Looking forward to seeing how this fully plays out.. but excited to work with the team.

Vida provides an outstanding service. If you use Vida, you will get quality dates from on-line dating apps. My matchmaker Shyne and her team work with me and work together to ensure I connect with the matches that are right for me. I don't need to spend my time finding the right matches because Shyne and her team handle that. I just meet my matches and be myself.

I joined VIDA less than 2 months ago. I’ve only had two introductions … but I remain optimistic as it’s been such a brief period of time. Johanna is very nice and communicative.

Shyne was a great match maker. Highly recommend her service. You can’t go wrong.

Vida made getting back into the dating scene after a long-term relationship exponentially easier! My matchmaker, Nordika, was extremely kind and understanding and really helped me narrow down what I was looking for. We tried various strategies that she brought to the table, and I finally ended up meeting someone I really like. I honestly don't think this would have been possible without Vida and I highly recommend them to anyone who is very busy and somewhat picky like I am.

Working with VIDA Select/ Francesca Wright - my relationship coach and Matchmaker - was a delightful experience. Francesca is always encouraging and offering positive perspectives. I told Francesca that she was an instrument in God's hands, that she was helping me to "ask, seek, and knock" for MY PERSON. AND I FOUND HER. If you are considering using VIDA realize that they are working around the clock to bring you home to THAT PERSON that will meet your needs. My new girlfriend-LTR suggested that this service deserved a BONUS because she noticed that (seemingly) my profile never slept! Funny. The process is easy. They walk you through it with Zooms, texts and personal phone calls. They are very proactive- setting up sessions to coordinate on a regular basis to tweak what is happening. Like the GPS, you can't take a wrong turn! It just redirects and keeps going. If I sound excited, I am. I really thought that the likelihood of matching me would be pretty tough, but in fact, I met a person that was my exact compliment which rocks my world, since my type only accounts for 1.8% of the population. As an Engineer I have trouble striking up that first conversation, which is the real beauty of this service: they open that door for you. I cannot provide a higher recommendation for VIDA Select and Francesca and her team. The process starts out slow, then picks up, so keep that in mind. But for me, from beginning to end it was only a little over 3 months. Thank YOU so much!

I've used them twice. The first time, within 6 weeks I was dating 3 PhDs. I've been with one of them for almost 5 years now. Both times I've used Vida the people and results have been great, especially my matchmaker Nordika, who was such a help and made it so fun!

I want to do my best to write a review that hopefully helps others who are looking into this service and deciding if it is right for them. My aim is not to write a negative review for the sole purpose of bashing VIDA. With that in mind, let’s begin.

Before we get into the positives and negatives, I would first like to start off by saying that at the time of using this service, I was in my mid to late twenties. I believe that is imperative to my experience, so please keep that in mind. I will get into it later, but I believe if you are older, you will have a different experience.

Okay, now with that out of the way, let’s go into what VIDA pitched to me. On the first outreach call, I had a very pleasant chat with what I assumed was a salesman of some sort, who asked for some basic info and answered my questions. I did ask if my age would be an issue, and he assured me it would not be.

After that, I came to this site to read reviews, and one struck out to me, talking about how they manage your dating apps. That struck me as odd, since that is not the traditional avenue for matchmakers, so I went and asked the salesperson about it. He confirmed that was the case, saying I should expect 60% dating app management and 40% traditional database matchmaking. In the end, that was closer to 95% dating app management and 5% traditional database matchmaking, but I will speak on that later.

Next, I signed up and had my screening call with the matchmaker. I think she had thoughtful questions and did her job well. I went out of my way to ask if my filters would prohibit me or be too narrow for any database matches, and she assured me that I would be okay.

Next, they helped me create some new profile pictures, which seemed edited by AI, but were not too bad honestly, and created my dating profiles. They also heavily suggested I buy the premium version, which is no small fee, basically adding another 8–10% to the cost.

Now, to the results. In one month’s time, they managed to get me two phone numbers of girls from dating apps and only ONE potential database match, and that was AFTER I had to expand my age range by two years. Now, they do say 1–3 matches, so technically speaking, they somewhat delivered. However, I, on my own accord, could have gotten those matches from the dating apps easily. What I can’t believe is how little prospective database hits I got. They even said “quote-unquote” the main limiting factor was my age range.

What I was so disappointed about is that on all accounts I was assured my age would not be an issue, and it wound up being an issue. The biggest problem is that this was more of a dating app management service rather than matchmaking. I cannot imagine any guy in my age range who is so busy that they can’t use dating apps on their own time, especially for the price point.

I think if you are in your 30s, this will be better, especially if you don’t use dating apps often. However, if you are below 30, I just can’t recommend this service. (Side note: I was also in their most populated region in the US (NYC area), so if you are not there, it will be even rougher.)

Lastly, some positives and negatives:

Positives:

Everyone was super kind and helpful.

The pictures they made for me were useful.

Negatives:

The service itself.

I hope you find this review helpful and use it to make an informed decision.

They basically swipe right and left for you. They talk for you but to be honest it doesn’t sound like you. When you say no women wider than you there will still be women wider than you. You set an upper age limit and you will get matched with people outside that age limit. They count conversations with people who fail to disclose having kids as actual conversations. If the apps haven’t worked for you don’t use their service. Oh and you need to go out and get professional photos and they want to use AI to doctor them up and put you in places you haven’t been. Seems very dishonest. Don’t believe them when they say they have an internal database of other clients, it’s unlikely you will get any matches from them. I got one phone number and the person never responded but hey that counts as a success I guess. My wallet is lighter and no results. Like ordering and paying for a steak and getting an empty cold plate.
