Digital Safety
for the Modern Age
Guardr is AI-powered dating safety built for the LGBTQ+ community. Because everyone deserves to connect without compromise.
Our Story
Guardr was inspired by real experiences in online dating. Too many people—especially in the LGBTQ+ community—have encountered catfish profiles, bad actors, and situations that put their safety at risk. We built Guardr because the dating apps weren't doing enough.
What started as a simple idea—“What if you could verify someone before the first date?”—became a full AI-powered safety platform. We combine OSINT intelligence, facial recognition cross-referencing, and real-time risk assessment to give you the confidence to swipe right.
Our tagline says it all: 2FA for your heart. Just like two-factor authentication protects your accounts, Guardr adds a second layer of verification to your dating life.
Caleb Mills
After years of navigating online dating as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, Caleb experienced firsthand the gaps in safety that existing platforms leave wide open. Catfish profiles, bad actors, and a lack of accountability drove him to build something better.
Combining a background in technology with a passion for community safety, Caleb created Guardr to be the tool he wished existed—AI-powered protection that puts the LGBTQ+ community first.
Meet Midnight
Midnight is our protective guardian—a loyal companion who represents trust, loyalty, and inclusivity. She watches over your connections, helping verify profiles and ensuring safer dating experiences.
Just like the best guard dogs, Midnight is always alert, always caring, and always on your side. She's the spirit of what Guardr stands for: fierce protection with unconditional love.
How We're Different
Guardr isn't another dating app. It's digital self-defense.
AI-Powered Verification
OSINT-backed identity checks analyze digital footprints, reverse-image search photos, and cross-reference public data to surface red flags before you meet.

Built by and for marginalized communities who face disproportionate risk in online dating. Every design decision starts with queer safety.
