Summary

It’s 2024 and Bumble’s users are increasingly frustrated by matches that go nowhere. Investors are equally uneasy as the stock price cascades from its post-IPO highs.

Founder Whitney Wolfe Herd returns to save her company and to find out whether an app built on human connection can be rescued by AI.
