Exactly Me Looks To Connect You With People Exactly Like Yourself

Los Angeles-based Exactly.me, a new, photo-driven messaging startup, has launched an app which looks to connect people who meet people who are "exactly like you"--or at least, who are very like-minded. According to the startup, it is looking to rise beyond the many message apps that just communicate with people you know, and instead helps people discover other like-minded individuals, helping strangers become friends. The startup, led by Los Angeles startup veteran Jay Goss, says the company's technology was developed by the former CTO of AskJeeves, and uses photo sharing to power a recommendation engine. The app is currently available for iOS. Goss has previously been involved with such companies as Kumba Health, Wellcaster, RxVantage, Mogreet, and Numedeon, among other firms.
