Start with the session
A useful Buddy match begins with what each person wants to do: focused work, study, a quiet shared table, or a softer social work session. Rhythm and timing can matter as much as the cafe itself.
Profiles support context, but the intended score is not a popularity or appearance ranking.
From match to plan
A match can open messaging and a shared cafe plan. The plan helps both people agree on place and timing before meeting.
Either person can stop the conversation or decline a plan. Compatibility does not create an obligation.
What the score cannot know
The system cannot verify every statement, guarantee identity, predict behavior, or promise that two people will work well together.
Use the score as one input, review the plan, meet in public, and use block or report controls when needed.
