Need ideas about good recommendation system for matchmaking


I am working on a dating app where I am looking for good matchmaking ML algos which can do content based filtering and later on move to collaborative filtering (once we have enough user data).

There is no such thing as "good matchmaking". Because intentions of both sides are different and it's a zero sum game where secret of skill is making the most plausible pretense that your intentions are not what they are, dating skill is about misrepresenting oneself. A "good matchmaking" is about "finding a good partner for both sides", if some app did that, no one would use it.
