The AlignmentScore is the planned compatibility concept behind Amorixo. It is designed to show, at a glance, how well-aligned two people may be across values, communication style, and dealbreakers. This article previews the direction, not a final live formula.
The Concept
For the public website, we explain AlignmentScore in a simple way. It is not meant to reduce people to code. It is a clearer way to explain how Amorixo plans to think about compatibility.
The AlignmentScore
The product direction is to make the matching logic understandable before launch. The idea is simple: shared values, communication fit, and dealbreaker checks all work together.
Values Match
How closely your most important values line up with another person’s priorities.
Communication Fit
How your personalities and communication styles may work together in real life.
Dealbreaker Check
Whether both people pass each other’s non-negotiables before a match is shown.
That public explanation is easier to understand than raw technical notation. The more important detail is in how Value Similarity is calculated.
Why Ranking Order Changes Everything
You don't just pick your values — you rank them from most to least important. This is intentional. Your Rank 1 value carries 5× the weight of your Rank 5 value in the similarity calculation.
Here's a concrete example. Suppose you rank Family first and Career second. You match with two people:
- Person A also ranks Family first and Career second — near-perfect alignment
- Person B ranks Career first and Family fifth — reversed priorities
Person A should be treated as more aligned than Person B, even if both people mention similar values on paper. The point is simple: what matters most to you should matter most in a match.
This weighting system reflects how relationships actually work. A couple who both put family above everything else will navigate the hard decisions of life very differently from a couple where one person lives for career and the other for family — even if they love each other.
Personality Fit: The CCI
The personality component is planned as a guided communication-style quiz. It explores things like introversion vs. extroversion, structure vs. spontaneity, emotional expressiveness, conflict style, and how you balance independence and togetherness.
The goal is to translate those answers into a clearer sense of fit. Some people align because they are similar. Others align because their differences genuinely balance each other.
Communication fit is more nuanced than identical answers. Two high-structure people may conflict over control. A structured person paired with a spontaneous one can balance each other well. The planned communication model is designed to account for this nuance rather than simply rewarding identical answers.
Hard Dealbreakers: The Gate, Not the Score
Hard dealbreakers work differently from the other two components. They are not a score — they are a gate. If either person has set a hard dealbreaker that the other person triggers, that introduction should not be shown at all. No reduced score. No pressure. Just a clean respect for boundaries.
This matters because a high compatibility score should not override a true non-negotiable. The planned system treats hard dealbreakers as boundaries, not tiny score penalties.
Soft Preferences: Visible, Not Blocking
Soft preferences work differently. These are things someone may prefer but will not completely rule out. They can appear as compatibility notes so users can make an informed decision.
Dynamic Updates
People change. The product direction is to refresh compatibility when users update values, communication answers, or dealbreakers, so suggestions continue to reflect who they are now.
The goal is to avoid hidden logic that maximises screen time. The compatibility system should be built from understandable parts. That transparency is the point.
