Posts about Hater on Shark Tank Blog
Brendan Alper hopes to find some love in the Shark Tank when he pitches Hater, a dating app that matches people based on what they hate, in episode 909. Alper is a former Goldman Sachs financial guy who turned to comedy writing when he realized finance wasn’t his cup of tea. The idea for Hater initially was a joke, but he soon realized it was based in real datingranking.net/nl/seniorblackpeoplemeet-overzicht psychology.
A 2006 study in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin argued that “people readily connect when they have a third entity to jointly demean.” Armed with an idea and a bit of academic proof, Alper made his app into a Tinder-like product that asks people to swipe up or down for “love” or “hate,” and right or left for “like” or “dislike.”
