Ready to find your person in Austin?

If you're not meeting women you're excited about around town...

Or, you're tired of the endless hassle of apps like Hinge and Raya...

Stop wasting time, and let me set you up!

My name is Blaine Anderson, I live in Tarrytown, and I've helped >7,000 happy matchmaking and coaching clients find love since starting Dating By Blaine in 2020.

I'm lucky to have been featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and even on Shark Tank (Mark Cuban offered me a deal during Season 15 🦈)

You may have also seen me on social media: my dating stories and tips reach tens of millions of folks each month on my Instagram, my YouTube, and my X (aka Twitter).

All of that's to say...

My life revolves around helping men in Austin find amazing partners.

If you're ready to get your dating life unstuck, I'd love to introduce you to the woman of your dreams!

Here's a tiny sample of photos from happy Dating By Blaine clients with their new girlfriends.

Why Austin Is a Great (and Tricky) City for Dating

Austin's population of attractive single women exploded during the pandemic.

You've seen all the new cuties at Barry's downtown, and SunLife on South Congress 😜

But being a busy single man in our great state's capital city isn't always easy!

What I hear from my Austin matchmaking clients:

"I meet plenty of women, but rarely someone I'm truly excited about..."

Sure we have a vibrant social scene, but you may find yourself running into the same women out and about, especially if you've lived here a while.

"Dating apps in Austin are exhausting..."

Austin is the birthplace of Bumble, and app usage is off the charts here. That sounds like a good thing, until you've actually spent hours swiping.

"I'm busy running my startup, and don't have time..."

Between work, staying active, supporting friends and family, and trying all the BBQ and breakfast tacos, it can be hard to find time to date intentionally.

If any of the above feels familiar, and you're ready to find your person, matchmaking might be the right move for you!

How Matchmaking Works for Austin Clients

Working with a professional matchmaker should feel straightforward. Here's exactly how the process works when you hire me & my team:

1. we get to know each other

We'll start with a conversation to understand your background, values, and the types of women you want to meet.

If I don't feel confident that I can deliver matches you'll be excited about in Austin (or elsewhere if you're casting a wider net) I'll tell you!

2. We decide to work together

My matchmaking engagements are typically structured as 6-month searches. During that timeframe, I'll guarantee ≥10x hand-picked introductions to women who meet your search criteria.

Each introduction is carefully curated. We're not randomly finding women at Nickel City and convincing them to meet you!

3. We prepare you for dates

My Austin matchmaking clients all get professional styling and photos from the #1 local dating photographer (her name is Svetlana!) because you won't land the best matches if you don't look your best.

We may also clean up your online presence (e.g. Google, Instagram) before we start your search.

4. We find amazing women for you

This is where we're different from most matchmakers. We don't source dates from a picked-over database of women who may also be paying for matchmaking!

We find each match for you personally, by hand. My team screens and speaks with every potential match before proposing an introduction. A single introduction you receive might represent dozens of conversations we've had with different women on your behalf.

In Austin specifically, we source matches through:

  • Our personal networks. I've lived in Austin since 2020 (I'm in Tarrytown!) and I know a ton of beautiful single women around town.
  • Out and about. We meet matches for our clients at Peach House, Swedish Hill, and everywhere else attractive women spend their time in Austin.
  • Social media. Being "Instagram famous" has its perks: attractive women actually respond to my DMs, including women who would likely ignore other matchmakers.

Fifth, you enjoy great dates.

By the time we share a match with you, she will have already learned about your background, and opted into meeting you for dinner or drinks.

Assuming you're also excited to meet her, we’ll help with the logistics of planning a date (e.g. take her to Il Brutto on E 6th).

Our goal is to enable you to just show up, and have fun meeting someone new!

Is Hiring An Austin Matchmaker Right For You?

Our matchmaking clients tend to have a few things in common:
You know what you want.

Your biggest dating challenge isn't confidence or social skills. It's finding the right person.

You feel confident on dates.

You don't have trouble landing second dates when you meet someone you like.

You're successful professionally.

You can comfortably invest five figures toward finding your person.

Sound like you, and want us to find your person in Austin?

How MucH Does Hiring An Austin Matchmaker Cost?

Unlike most professional matchmakers, I don't hide my prices. My matchmaking service starts at $25,000.

The specific investment amount depends on the complexity of your search, which boils down to:

  1. How hard will it be for us to find who you're seeking?
  2. Once we've found her, will she want to meet you?

Austin is one of my favorite cities to play cupid in. Beyond it being my home, the city's growth means there's an incredible pool of single women, and my network here is deep!

That said, if you have very specific criteria, that can affect the scope and cost of a matchmaking search.

If a $25,000 investment is in-budget, apply below, and we can discuss pricing 1x1.

Frequently Asked Questions About Austin Matchmaking

How is a professional matchmaker different from using dating apps in Austin?

Dating apps nominally give you access to a large pool of attractive women, but the burden of actually matching with anyone is entirely on you (and often insurmountable).

If you've ever looked at the "Standouts" section on Hinge, or opened up Raya, you know what I mean.

A professional matchmaker handles all of that. We identify, screen, and personally speak with every woman before proposing an introduction.

You skip the swiping, and go straight to high-quality dates with amazing Austin women who've already opted into meeting you!

Where do you find matches for Austin clients?

We source matches through our personal networks in Austin (my partners Sydney, Taylor, and I have lived here for years!) by connecting with women at local venues and events (e.g. pilates studios like ALIGN), and through social media (primarily Instagram and LinkedIn).

Unlike other matchmaking services, we don't rely on a database. Every match is found specifically for you.

Do I have to live in Austin to work with you?

No. We work with clients across the U.S. and internationally!

If you're based in Austin but open to meeting women in other cities (e.g. Dallas, Houston, and beyond) we can expand your search accordingly.

We also work with clients who are relocating to Austin and want to start meeting women before they arrive.

Can I date in multiple cities?

Absolutely. Many of our clients date in more than one city.

Let's say you travel frequently between Austin and New York for your business. We can easily line up matches for you in both cities.

What matters is that you're 100% comfortable traveling for dates, or willing to take first dates via FaceTime.

What if I have very specific criteria for who I want to meet?

We're always open to discussing complex searches. We'll also be honest upfront if we don't think we can find who you're looking for.

Austin has a strong and growing dating pool, but if you have ultra-narrow criteria (e.g. "UT alum, brunette, 26-29, between 5'7 and 5'10, vegan...") that can make your search significantly harder.

We'll talk through what's realistic when you reach out.

How long does it take to find a match in Austin?

Most engagements are structured as 6-month searches, where we agree to deliver a minimum of 10 hand-picked introductions.

Some clients meet their person within the first few introductions; others take longer. The timeline depends on your criteria, your availability for dates, and a bit of luck!

I'm a woman in Austin, can I meet your clients?

Yes! If you're an amazing single woman in Austin, and you'd like to be considered as a potential match for one of our clients, fill out my women's intake here.
