At the latest annual summary meeting, CEO of Translr Justin shows his team plans to expand funds in protecting trans users. He points out that the number of its new users reaches 1.5M in total in the United States. With its new daily members climbing to 1k, the team considers adding more funds to help transgender community in the United States.
The team is going to take four measures to help trans users
1 Giving more free trials to trans users. Justin suggests that trans users can get free trials to get higher exposure, which adds trans users’ right to choose better chatting partners. In other words, it allows trans people to take the initiative in their own hands.
2 Increasing investment and collaborating with more trans models. Those people will gain higher visibility after this decision.
3 Offering rewards to Collect more real stories from trans people. In order to help people better understand the trans community, the team encourages users to share their real life. For those people who add posts for their life, the team will provide some rewards.
4 Collaborating with the local trans associations to encourage trans users to have real-world meetings based on location. This enables them to better date or make friends. At the beginning, the team will promote this plan in megacities. In the end, by the end of next year, small and medium-sized cities can also be fully covered.
Debate Is Ongoing
Recently, some hostages suspect that this app is using the friends-making dilemma for trans singles in order to sensationalize. They hold the view that rather than being a hub where trans singles find true love, Translr is more designed to satisfy men’s curiosity or fetish about trans females and trans males.
Towards this view, the CEO of Translr has declined and reiterates that their original intention is still to help more trans users find serious relationships in reality. In order to break the dating bottleneck, they have put in a lot of effort. Justin emphasizes that time reveals their hearts.
