About

Aylu — a dating app for Kyrgyzstan

Why we build it

Global dating apps arrive in Kyrgyzstan as-is: without our languages, without the questions about family and faith that matter here, with a feed half-filled by other countries. Aylu is built here, for people who live here.

We speak four languages — Kyrgyz, Russian, Kazakh and English — and you can switch at any time without recreating your profile.

What makes it different

  • Detailed search: age, city, height, children, marital status, faith, education, habits, languages. Not just a photo.
  • Mini-games inside the chat — tic-tac-toe and battleship. Writing the first message is awkward; playing a round is easy.
  • Profile verification and photo moderation: empty and fake profiles never reach the feed.

Who is behind it

Aylu is built by Dmitriy Pozhidayev, Kyrgyz Republic. It is a small project, not a corporation: there is no hundred-person support desk, but the person reading your email is the one building the app.

We are early. If something is missing or broken, write to us — it genuinely shapes what gets built next.
