EverVibe — From me, to us

What if the things we love could help us love each other?

EverVibe brings cultural discovery into the everyday life of a relationship. Qloo finds connections between two people’s tastes; EVE helps them turn those discoveries into conversations, shared plans and memories.

Different tastes. A shared discovery.

Planning time together often becomes a compromise: the same familiar place, or one person’s preference winning again. We wanted to make difference a starting point for curiosity.

EverVibe’s Taste Bridge asks Qloo for a new film using both people’s interests and its explainability data. It excludes their original choices and looks for recommendations supported by contributions from both Vibes, prioritizing a balance between them.

Neither of you picked this. It could become something you discover together.

The bridge does not require an identical shared label. When Qloo provides supporting evidence, even different tastes can lead to a new possibility. Both people can inspect the suggestion, discuss it with EVE and confirm a shared plan.

Qloo supplies the cultural evidence. EVE helps turn it into a human conversation.

Culture moves the story forward

Culture is more than a list of interests. A song can open a conversation. Different ideas of romance can expose a misunderstanding. A familiar film can bring back a memory—and suggest something new to do together.

Four fictional couples explore these moments through the same app:

  • Tokyo — Discovery. A photograph and a song give two strangers a reason to talk.
  • New York — Connection. Different film and music tastes become a shared cultural outing, chosen by both people.
  • London — Repair. Different expectations of romance lead to an apology, a practical agreement and a cultural plan they can enjoy together.
  • Wellington — Rediscovery. After fifteen years, photography and remembered film nights inspire a new local exploration.

EVE has a private conversation with each person and a shared space for planning together. In the authored stories, when both people enable sharing and suggestions, a small wish expressed privately can inspire a separate suggestion to the partner. People still speak for themselves and make their own commitments.

Memories can begin with an editable draft from the shared conversation or a moment someone writes about real life. Once both roles confirm a memory, it provides water and nourishment for a garden that grows from a seed into a tree surrounded by roses.

Why Qloo matters

Qloo shapes what EverVibe recommends, not just how EVE describes it.

Its compare endpoint looks for common cultural themes across two sets of interests. Those themes and both people’s selected entities inform queries for films, places and destinations. Taste Bridge adds a second path: finding a new work with evidence from both sides, even when a shared theme is absent.

Gemini interprets the conversation and prepares a planning brief. The server validates the request, queries Qloo, and gives EVE actual candidates to explain. People choose and confirm the plan.

In one live New York comparison, adding Qloo’s shared themes changed five of the first six place candidates, introducing the Museum of the Moving Image. This is a concrete example of Qloo affecting the product’s result—not a claim that every recommendation improves.

The app uses TypeScript, browser JavaScript, Cloudflare Workers and Three.js, with server-side API credentials. The release includes 188 offline automated checks, alongside separately documented live-provider and browser checks. One key lesson was to keep retrieved facts, EVE’s interpretation and people’s decisions distinct.

Try your own story

The interactive demo is a space for two different tastes to discover something together. The black box introduces a fictional companion to try the experience with; it is not a promise to find a real romantic partner. Visitors can talk with EVE, review their interests and explore shared cultural plans, or request solo recommendations.

Private chat, direct conversation, shared planning, memories and the garden form one continuous experience. The app supports English and Simplified Chinese, uses a chosen city or permitted device location, and saves progress in the current browser.

For a focused test, open the Taste Bridge sample link above. It loads two fictional Vibes—Knives Out and Amélie—in New York and requests a Qloo discovery directly. Inspect the two input-contribution bars, then consider and confirm an idea from both perspectives. This sample session leaves your saved personal space untouched. No second person needs to be online.

This is a working prototype with simulated companions and single-browser role switching. Qloo provides cultural affinities, not a validated romantic compatibility score. Results depend on provider coverage; real-user networking, bookings and purchases are future work. Independent user research has not yet been conducted.

A companion for the life we share

Our ambition is to make EVE a companion and everyday assistant that understands how people want to live together.

A shared meal can carry family history. A concert can become a first date. A journey can reconnect two people who have stopped making time for each other. We want those moments to connect across services, rather than disappear into separate apps.

Over time, authorized integrations could help turn a shared intention into a restaurant reservation, tickets, travel arrangements or a meal delivered on a difficult evening. Qloo would support cultural discovery; dedicated services would carry out confirmed actions.

We would begin with couples planning time together in one city, test whether both people feel represented and reach a shared decision more easily, then grow across languages and communities. A possible subscription model would support ongoing planning; it remains to be tested.

The vision is global. The first step is personal: helping two people discover something neither would have found alone—and gradually move from me to us.
