Non-monogamy isn’t a cultural trend, it has been intricately woven into the fabric of human history. Humans have always sought diverse forms of love and connection.

Ancient indigenous societies practiced polyamory, and various religious sects embraced consensual multi-partner relationships.

The free love movement of the 1960s reignited this spirit, challenging societal norms and celebrating love without boundaries.

In current time, non-monogamous couples use dating apps and social networks to meet others.

In the future, we believe couples will continue to meet online but AI will understand you and your partners desires and curate matches for you.

That’s what we’re building.

Every feature is crafted to bring you exceptional play partners and turn fantasies into reality.

Here’s how Venus works:

AI therapy for the lifestyle, back by science.

We believe swinging is about more than sex, it’s about a journey of personal growth. Along the way, therapy can be a powerful tool.

But therapy can be expensive, inconvenient, and it can be hard to find a therapist who understands your lifestyle.

It can also be challenging to plan therapy sessions that align with you and your partner’s schedules, especially if you need to arrange for a babysitter.

Built into Venus are the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy, the same ones professional therapists use in their sessions.

You can chat with Venus about all things swinging and non-monogamy. from dealing with nervousness before attending a lifestyle club to asking for help setting boundaries with your partner before meeting a couple for a double date.

If you and your partner prefer a human therapist, you’ll be able to ask Venus to recommend human therapists nearby, each one vetted and approved by Venus. Our network of human therapists is growing every day.

Transparent matchmaking, curated by AI

Our AI uses powerful algorithms to find you the best matches. Venus is built on insights gathered from extensive research on non-monogamy, behavioral science, and cues drawn from the details in your profile.

Even with powerful algorithms, we believe the final decision should always be between you and your partner.

That’s why our AI displays matches with percentage scores, so that you can decide who you think you’ll connect with best.

Meet couples from other platforms

The truth is, you don’t need another messaging app and you’ve already built a network on other social media apps.

That’s why we decided to exclude a messaging feature in Venus and instead let you choose which platforms you want others to message you on.

And to prevent spam and unwanted messages, no one can see your social media links until you’ve accepted their connection request.

The platform we currently support are Kasidie, Instagram, Reddit, and Facebook. More coming soon.

Built for private figures

At Venus, we prioritize your privacy and consent. All your profile data and chats with our AI are encrypted on our servers to ensure your information stays secure.

Following our commitment to privacy, you may also blur your photos across the platform. Just as well your social media links, only friends you’ve accept can see your photos.

In the coming months, we’ll be introducing an optional “Verification via ID” feature, where Venus will verify users by submitting a photo of an ID.

Verified profiles will receive a “Verified” label, further enhancing security and trust among members.

How to join Venus

Quality connections thrive in a quality community. Venus operates on an invite-only basis, with each new user receiving three invites.

To get an invite code, ask around. Someone you know may already be on Venus. You’ll likely find Venus users on Instagram, Reddit, and at lifestyle events.

If you can’t get access to an invite code, you may join our waitlist for future updates here: TakeMeToVenus.com
