Singles & Networking is ALIVE's built-in social feature — a fun, interactive twist on the traditional photo booth experience. It turns your booth into a social hub where guests can connect with each other through photos and swipes. ALIVE offers **two modes** to match the vibe of your event: * **Singles mode** — A matchmaking experience for social events, parties, and singles nights * **Networking mode** — A professional connection tool for corporate events, conferences, and mixers --- ## What Makes It Special? At social events, a photo booth is already a conversation starter. Singles & Networking takes it further by letting guests: * **Create a profile** with their booth photos * **Browse other guests' profiles** in a swipe-style interface * **Express interest** and see who liked them back * **Connect** with matches right at the event It's like a mini dating app (Singles mode) or a professional networking tool (Networking mode) — but in person, at the event, powered by your photo booth. --- ## Two Modes, One Feature ### Singles Mode The original matchmaking experience. Guests create a profile with their name, photo, age, and gender, then swipe to find matches. Perfect for singles events, parties, and any social gathering where connecting people is the goal. Features a vibrant **pink/rose** themed interface. ### Networking Mode Built for professional events. Instead of dating-style profiles, guests add their **company**, **role**, **LinkedIn profile**, and **professional interests** (Tech, Marketing, Design, Finance, AI, Startups, and more). Features a sleek **blue/cyan** themed interface that fits the corporate vibe. You choose the mode when setting up the event — see [Setting Up a Singles Event](/en/article/setting-up-a-singles-event-1dij8fj) for details. --- ## Who Is It For? ### Singles Mode * **Singles events and speed dating** — The perfect match (pun intended) * **Holiday parties** — Add some extra fun and interaction * **Bar/bat mitzvah after-parties** — Age-appropriate social features * **Any social event** — Wherever connecting people is part of the fun ### Networking Mode * **Corporate mixers and networking events** — Break the ice and get people talking * **Conferences and trade shows** — Help attendees find relevant connections * **Industry meetups** — Connect professionals with shared interests * **Company events** — Help employees across departments connect --- ## How It Works (Quick Overview) 1. A guest steps up to the booth and takes their photos 2. They create a quick profile with their name, photo, and relevant details (dating info or professional info, depending on the mode) 3. They can browse other guests' profiles and swipe 4. If two guests like each other — it's a match! 5. Matches can view each other's profiles and connect The whole thing runs through the web — guests access it on their phones after scanning a QR code at the booth. --- ## Why Offer It? * **Unique selling point** — Most photo booths can't do this. You can. * **Higher engagement** — Guests spend more time interacting with the booth experience * **Event planners love it** — It's the kind of feature that gets clients excited about booking * **Upsell opportunity** — Add Singles or Networking as a premium package add-on * **Two modes, double the bookings** — Offer matchmaking for social events AND networking for corporate clients | Think of Singles & Networking as your booth's secret weapon for social events. When a client asks "what can you do that others can't?" — this is your answer. --- ## What's Next? * [Setting Up a Singles Event](/en/article/setting-up-a-singles-event-1dij8fj) — How to enable and configure Singles or Networking for your event * [Guest Experience — Join, Swipe & Match](/en/article/guest-experience-join-swipe-match-6zbso2) — What the guest sees and does
