Threadmill is a simple and privacy-focused dating layer for Threads and Instagram. Users sign in with their existing social identity, create a lightweight dating profile and add a personal threadmill.app/username link to their bio.

Threadmill is built for people who already express themselves on Threads and Instagram but do not want to create another long, complicated dating profile. The onboarding is intentionally fast: users sign in with Threads or Instagram, answer a few essential questions and can immediately start discovering nearby people.

A personal Threadmill link can be shared directly in a social-media bio. Visitors can use it to express interest without sending an awkward DM or asking to connect on Instagram. Mutual interest creates a match, after which users can begin chatting in Threadmill.

The product’s main advantage is its simplicity:

  • quick onboarding
  • lightweight profiles
  • familiar social-media identity
  • location-based discovery
  • easy-to-share profile links
  • a focused, uncluttered user experience

Location access is required. The app shows the nearest relevant users first and gradually expands the search area, rather than forcing users to configure complicated distance settings.

Threadmill is designed by a European company with European servers. User data and chat content are not shared with external parties. The service is also completely ad-free, which supports a more trustworthy and focused dating experience.

The initial audience is adults. A separate age-segmented version could later allow under-18 users to match only with other under-18 users, with strict separation between minor and adult profiles.

Threadmill is marketed through Threads and Instagram themselves. Every profile link shared in a bio can become a direct acquisition channel, allowing the product to grow inside an existing social environment rather than building a new network from scratch.

The business model is freemium:

  • free basic matching and messaging
  • premium subscription with unlimited matches
  • hidden age display
  • improved visibility
  • additional discovery features

Threadmill combines a low-friction user experience, built-in social distribution, privacy-first infrastructure and a clear subscription model. Its purpose is not to become another complicated dating platform, but to add a simple and safe dating function to the social networks people already use.
