Hinge CEO Justin McLeod is stepping down to launch Overtone, an AI-powered dating app focused on voice tools and thoughtful connections. Match Group is backing the venture with pre-seed financing and taking substantial ownership. The move reflects a broader trend of dating app founders exploring AI solutions as the industry faces declining subscribers and growing user fatigue, particularly among Gen Z. Overtone was incubated within Hinge over the past year, and McLeod will remain as advisor through March while Hinge's president Jackie Jantos takes over as CEO.
