Tantan (探探) is a Chinese location-based social discovery and online dating application, launched in 2014 and widely described as "China's Tinder" for its swipe-based matching mechanic. The app pairs nearby users who mutually express interest and layers on messaging, moments, live streaming, and interest-based social features. An early DCM Ventures portfolio company, Tantan was acquired by Momo Inc. (now Hello Group) in 2018 and operates as a consumer mobile product across China and several international markets. Tantan is a mobile-first consumer app and publishes no public developer API, SDK, or developer portal; this profile captures its public web identity and probed domain-security posture.
Tantan is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Consumer, Dating, Social, and Mobile.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/tantan: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
