How it works
Every Friend Circle Introduction Video is a guided interview, recorded with us, edited by us, and published only after you say yes.
Create your profile
Our guided, mostly multiple-choice form helps us understand a little about you and, most importantly, the kind of friendship you hope to find. You will not have to write long answers.
Every field is clearly marked so you know what remains private and what may appear on your profile. You review everything that could be shared long before it is published.
Pay and schedule
Standard price: $129. Limited-time special: $79 through December 31, 2026. One-time payment. No subscription or recurring fee.
You have one year from your purchase date to schedule and complete your guided interview. If you do not complete the interview within that one-year period, your purchase expires. Continuing after the expiration date requires a new purchase at the price then in effect. Your private booking link appears as soon as payment is complete, and your interview prompts are waiting inside your application: five questions everyone receives and three personality questions chosen for you.
Meet your interviewer
During your appointment, a member of the Bestiemony team guides and records a relaxed conversation using a secure third-party video-recording service. You will need a phone, tablet or computer with a working camera and microphone.
There is no script to memorize and no performance required. If you stumble or want to try an answer again, we can pause and restart.
Your guided interview generally lasts approximately 10–15 minutes. We then shape the conversation into a professionally edited 3–8 minute Friend Circle Introduction Video. The final length depends on your answers and the natural flow of the conversation. You will also receive two short clips of less than one minute each for sharing on social media.
Shorter videos generally hold attention better. Our goal is to preserve the moments that reveal your personality, warmth and friendship style without asking viewers to watch the entire interview.
Approve and share
Our goal is to send your professionally edited 3–8 minute Friend Circle Introduction Video to you within one week of your interview. One reasonable round of editing adjustments is included, and nothing is published until you approve it.
After your approval, your video is published in your profile in the Friend Circle Directory, where people watch it right inside the app. You also receive a shareable link to your approved main Friend Circle Introduction Video after publication, plus two downloadable short social-media clips, each less than one minute.
Every participant and video receives a unique Friend Code, such as EFC-1001. The code connects your video, your social clips and your directory listing.
Why the interviews matter
We conduct real, guided interviews because seeing and hearing someone gives others a more genuine sense of that person’s personality, warmth and communication style. You do not need to be especially outgoing or polished. Whether you are talkative, quiet, shy, funny, thoughtful or somewhere in between, someone may be looking for exactly the kind of personality and communication style you naturally have. Your unique personality could be someone else’s perfect friendship fit.
One year to complete your interview
You have one year from your purchase date to schedule and complete your guided interview. If you do not complete the interview within that one-year period, your purchase expires. Continuing after the expiration date requires a new purchase at the price then in effect.
Two approved videos. Two yeses. One new conversation.
- 1. You watch a participant's approved video and select “I'd Like to Contact Them.”
- 2. Before submitting, you confirm that if they also say yes, your approved connection email may be shared with them.
- 3. They receive a private notification and can view your approved profile and video.
- 4. They choose “Yes, They May Contact Me” or “No, Not at This Time.”
- 5. If they do not accept, no contact information is shared and the request simply disappears from your profile.
- 6. If they say yes, both of you receive an introduction email containing the other person's approved connection email.
- 7. After both participants say yes, only their approved connection email addresses are exchanged.
Bestiemony facilitates the mutual introduction but does not select, endorse or guarantee the match. We may still review reports, investigate suspected misconduct, enforce community standards and suspend or remove accounts. Safety enforcement is separate from deciding whether two participants should meet.
