Guided services

Need some extra help?

Dating well is a skill, and sometimes a good app is not the whole answer. Hum and our parent company BanyanWay offer a small set of paid, human-led services for people who want more hands-on guidance. Every one of them is optional, and Hum works exactly the same whether you use them or not.

Flagship service, by BanyanWay

Personalized matchmaking

A dedicated matchmaker from BanyanWay learns what you are actually looking for, then hand-selects and introduces you to people who fit. You get curated introductions, honest feedback after each one, and someone in your corner who knows the South Asian dating landscape from the inside.

  • An intake conversation about values, family, and what you want long term
  • Hand-picked introductions, not an algorithm
  • Feedback and adjustment after every match

With our partner coaches

One-on-one dating coaching

Private sessions with a dating coach we have partnered with. Useful if you are getting matches but not second dates, coming out of a long relationship, or just want to feel steadier about putting yourself out there.

  • Confidence and conversation practice
  • Working through nerves, burnout, or a rough patch
  • Honest outside perspective on how you come across

Profile and photo studio

Most people are let down by their photos, not their personality. We will pair you with a photographer and help you write a profile that sounds like you rather than like everyone else.

  • A photo session built for dating profiles specifically
  • Storyboard selection and sequencing
  • Written profile and prompt review

Family and community guidance

For many of us, dating is not a solo decision. This is a private, judgment-free session on navigating family expectations, deciding when and how to introduce someone, and handling the conversations that come with dating across community, caste, religion, or generation.

  • Setting boundaries with family without burning bridges
  • Timing and framing introductions
  • Support for interfaith and cross-community couples

Date planning concierge

Tell us the city, the vibe, and the budget, and we will plan the date and handle the booking. Good for a first date you want to get right, or an anniversary you would rather not improvise.

  • Venue suggestions matched to both people
  • Reservations and timing handled for you
  • Backup plan if something falls through
