Candle
Candle helps couples and friends grow closer daily in just 5 minutes.
If you are part of Candle (or you are a YC founder who looks at Candle and thinks that is the kind of business I run), you probably do not have time for a six-month SEO agency contract. Seoable was built for that. Audit your site, queue 100 ready-to-publish posts, and run it all from your AI assistant.
About Candle
Most relationships, romantic or platonic, don’t end in one moment, they drift apart over time. Missed check-ins, surface-level conversations, busy lives, and routines replace real connection. Candle helps couples and friends stay close through 1-minute daily rituals that bring back presence, play, and curiosity. Candle gives couples and friends a daily, low-pressure game designed to create emotional momentum: the most essential, and often most neglected, ingredient in long-term connection. What started as a swipeable questions game has grown into a full platform and private space for your relationship: - Daily Prompts & Games: Thoughtful, funny, and unexpected questions, couple quizzes, audio and photo challenges that update and adapt monthly - Shared Canvas Widget: Leave notes, doodles, or drawings right on each other’s home screen - Now in beta: Date Ideas Swiping**: Get 60 curated date ideas based on your area (yes, even San Francisco :)), updated weekly. Swipe to match on what you both want to try. From pop-up events to hidden gems, it’s the easiest way to try something new together or even with friends or family! We’d love feedback here! - Streaks & Shared Progress — Build accountability and a shared rhythm - Adaptive Decks: Smarter, more relevant questions over time - Shared Photo Albums & Memories: Keep track of all your photos and logged memories

Why founders like Candle use Seoable
- Ship without an agency. Audit your site and queue 100 posts in one afternoon. No briefs to write, no calls to take.
- Drive it from Claude or Cursor. Seoable is MCP-first. Your assistant can run audits, queue posts, and pull reports without you opening a dashboard.
- Pay per piece, not per seat. Credits instead of monthly seats. Buy what you need, when you need it.
- SEO that includes AI engines. Our audits check what ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, DeepSeek, and Grok already say about you, not just Google.
