Est. [year] · By introduction and interview only

Introductions made by people, not algorithms.

Claret Room is a matchmaking practice. A named matchmaker interviews you in person, verifies who you are, and hand-selects introductions from a private roster. There is no profile to write, no photograph to upload and nothing about you is ever published, indexed or sold.

What you are buying

Discretion is the service, not a feature

Three commitments that hold for every member, at every tier, without exception and without a clause that quietly undoes them.

Interviewed in person

Every member sits for a ninety-minute intake interview with the matchmaker who will carry their file. Nobody enters the roster from a form, an app or a referral alone.

Identity and record verified

Government photo identification, employment or business ownership, marital status and a criminal-record search are completed before a first introduction is arranged. Members are re-screened at renewal.

Nothing published

There is no profile page, no gallery and no search index. Your file is visible to your matchmaker and to the practice principal, and to no one else — including other members.

The method

Five stages, one matchmaker

The same sequence for every member since [year]. Durations below are typical of the practice, not promises, and no stage is skipped for anyone.

  1. Stage oneConfidential consultation

    Forty-five minutes with a matchmaker. You describe who you are looking for; we tell you honestly whether we can help and, if we cannot, who might.

    45 minutes
    • Format Call or in person
    • Cost No charge
  2. Stage twoApplication and eligibility

    A short written application confirming you are eighteen or over and legally free to marry. We do not accept everyone who applies, and we tell the others plainly.

    3 to 5 days
    • Confirms Age 18+
    • Status Single, divorced or widowed
  3. Stage threeIntake interview and verification

    The long conversation, in person wherever possible, followed by identity, employment and criminal-record verification carried out by a licensed reporting agency.

    90 minutes
    • Checks Photo ID
    • Records County and federal search
  4. Stage fourCurated introductions

    One introduction at a time, each preceded by a call explaining exactly why we think it is right. You always know who you are meeting and why before you agree to anything.

    Ongoing through the term
    • Cadence One at a time
    • Notice 72 hours before any meeting
  5. Stage fiveDebrief and recalibration

    A twenty-minute call after each meeting. What you say in it is used to sharpen the search and is never repeated to the other party in any form.

    After every introduction
    • Format 20-minute call
    • Notes Never shared with the other party
Membership

Three ways to engage the practice

Every tier begins with the same interview and the same verification. What changes is the search radius, the number of introductions and how much of a matchmaker week is reserved for you.

Matchmakers in practice

Criminal-record screening disclosure

Claret Room conducts criminal background screening on every accepted member, carried out by a licensed third-party consumer reporting agency before any first introduction is arranged.

The statutory caveats below are shown here, on the membership and sign-up pages, and in full on the Privacy & Safety page, as the law in several states requires of any service that screens.

CLARET ROOM CONDUCTS CRIMINAL BACKGROUND SCREENING ON EVERY ACCEPTED MEMBER. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND SCREENING IS NOT FOOLPROOF. IT MAY GIVE MEMBERS A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. IT IS NOT A PERFECT SAFETY NET. SCREENINGS ARE LIMITED TO PUBLICLY AVAILABLE CONVICTION RECORDS, ARE NOT CURRENT IN EVERY STATE, AND DO NOT COVER ARRESTS OR ANY CONVICTION RECORDED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.

Confidentiality

No profile is published or search-indexed, your file is never sold and it is never shared with advertisers.

Confidentiality statement

Safety

Safe-meeting and romance-scam guidance, plus a named reporting contact who answers within one business day.

Trust & Safety

Your data

You may request your file, correct it or have it deleted within thirty days, at any time and without giving a reason.
