Partner Spotlight - Compatico

We partner with people who build for the long term, who prioritise humanity and who understand that real momentum is created when people genuinely connect. That’s why Compatico stands out.

Led by owner and CEO Elise Dalrymple-Keast, Compatico is quietly reshaping what connection can look like in a modern world - not through algorithms or endless swiping, but through intention, safety and real human experience.

Elise didn’t come to Compatico chasing a trend. After founding and scaling her own marketing agency at just 23, she realised something was missing. The work was successful, but the purpose wasn’t strong enough. When the opportunity arose to acquire Compatico in mid-2025, she gave herself one weekend to decide. The answer came quickly - because, for the first time, the work felt personal.

“We’re living through a loneliness epidemic,” Elise says. “More dating apps than ever, but fewer real connections.”

Compatico had already been built on a powerful foundation by Dame Theresa Gattung: a human-first matchmaking service with rigorous safety standards, deep respect for privacy, and a belief that connection deserves care. Elise saw the opportunity to honour that foundation - and expand it.

Since taking ownership, momentum has followed with intention.

Events expanded across Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.

Community gatherings introduced for low-pressure connection.

Over 1,000 profile shares delivered - more than half in just five months.

Innovative activations launched, including wellness-led initiatives like Hot & Single at Les Mills.

But the ambition goes beyond scale.

Elise’s vision is to transform the entire singles experience - positioning Compatico not just as a place to meet a partner, but as a community where people invest in themselves. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. Dating becomes part of a bigger journey - one rooted in confidence, wellbeing and genuine connection.

That philosophy is precisely why Compatico aligns so naturally with Revved.

Just as Revved challenges what a business summit can be, Compatico is challenging what dating and belonging can be. Both reject the transactional in favour of the transformational. Both believe that the most powerful outcomes happen when the right people are brought together - intentionally, thoughtfully, and in environments designed for real interaction.

The Revved community values courage, authenticity and momentum. These are the same qualities required to build meaningful relationships - in business and in life.

This partnership isn’t about overlap. It’s about shared belief.

>> Belief that connection is currency.Belief that people deserve better.

>> Belief that when you build with care, momentum compounds.

Compatico is becoming the membership people are proud to be part of - whether or not they’ve found their match yet. And Revved is proud to welcome them as a Partner.

Because when people come before platforms, and purpose leads the way, what follows isn’t just growth - it’s impact.

Engines ON. Excuses OFF.
