Your relationship health, quantified

What is a Connection Score?

Understanding your relationship health shouldn't require a PhD in psychology. That's why we created the Connection Score.

A Single Number That Tells Your Story

Your Connection Score is a comprehensive measure of relationship health, distilled into a single number from 0 to 100. It's not a test you can fail or a competition with other couples. Instead, it's a personalized metric that reflects the unique dynamics of your relationship based on how you engage with each other through the Connected app.

Think of it as a relationship health vital sign, like your heart rate or blood pressure, but for your partnership. It gives you a quick snapshot of how you're doing while providing the detail needed to understand what's working and what needs attention.

Unlike traditional relationship assessments that you take once and forget, your Connection Score is a living measure that evolves with your relationship. It captures the small daily moments of connection just as much as the big milestones, giving you a complete picture of your relationship health over time.

How Your Connection Score is Calculated

Your score isn't arbitrary. It's built on research-backed relationship indicators and real data from how you and your partner engage with each other.

💬

Daily Question Engagement

Every day you answer questions together strengthens your score. We measure both participation (are you showing up?) and alignment (are you understanding each other?). Consistent engagement signals a relationship where both partners are invested in staying connected.

😊

Mood Check-In Patterns

Your emotional patterns matter. We analyze how frequently you check in on your moods, how synchronized your emotional states are, and whether you're supporting each other through ups and downs. Emotional awareness is a cornerstone of relationship health.

📋

Weekly Check-In Results

Your weekly reflections provide deeper insight into relationship satisfaction, conflict resolution, and intimacy. Completing these together demonstrates commitment to intentional relationship maintenance, a key predictor of long-term success.

📊

Assessment Scores

Periodic relationship assessments across communication, intimacy, conflict resolution, and other dimensions feed directly into your Connection Score. These validated instruments give us a research-backed foundation for understanding your relationship health.

❤️

Appreciation Frequency

Gratitude is one of the strongest predictors of relationship satisfaction. We track how often you exchange appreciations, whether they're reciprocated, and if they're consistent over time. Regular appreciation creates a positive feedback loop that strengthens bonds.

🔥

Streak Consistency

Showing up day after day matters. Your streak data reveals your commitment to maintaining connection even when life gets busy. Consistency is a powerful signal of relationship prioritization and resilience.

Each component is weighted based on relationship research and continuously refined by our algorithms. The result is a score that's both scientifically grounded and personally meaningful to your unique relationship journey.

Understanding Your Sub-Scores

Your overall Connection Score is the headline, but the sub-scores tell the full story. These five dimensions break down exactly where your relationship shines and where you can grow.

Communication

85

Measures daily question engagement, conversation depth, active listening signals, and how well you understand each other's perspectives. Strong communication is the foundation of everything else.

Intimacy

78

Tracks emotional vulnerability, physical connection data from check-ins, and the depth of personal sharing. Intimacy isn't just physical, it's about feeling safe to be fully yourself with your partner.

Emotional Connection

82

Analyzes mood synchronization, emotional support patterns, appreciation exchange, and how you respond to each other's emotional needs. Emotional attunement creates lasting bonds.

Shared Activities

76

Reflects date night frequency, shared goal completion, and collaborative engagement with app activities. Couples who play together stay together, and data proves it.

Appreciation

88

Monitors gratitude expression, recognition of effort, celebration of wins, and reciprocal appreciation patterns. Regular appreciation transforms good relationships into great ones.

These sub-scores aren't meant to be perfect across the board. Every relationship has strengths and growth areas. What matters is awareness and intentionality. When you know which dimension needs attention, you can take targeted action to strengthen it.

Track Your Progress Over Time

A single score is useful, but the real power comes from seeing how you evolve together month after month.

Monthly Score Charts

Visualize your Connection Score trends with beautiful, easy-to-read charts that show your journey over time. See at a glance whether you're growing closer or drifting apart, and identify patterns that correlate with life events, seasons, or stress levels.

Our charts don't just show your overall score. You can drill down into each sub-score dimension to understand exactly which areas are improving and which need more attention. This level of detail helps you celebrate wins and course-correct before small issues become big problems.

Insight: Most couples see their Connection Score fluctuate by 5-10 points month to month based on life circumstances. What matters is the overall trajectory and your ability to bounce back from low periods.

AI-Powered Insights on Score Changes

Understanding why your score changed is just as important as knowing that it did. Our AI analyzes your score movements and provides personalized insights into what drove the change, whether positive or negative.

When your score increases, you'll learn which behaviors contributed most so you can keep doing them. When it dips, you'll get specific, actionable recommendations for what to focus on. This isn't generic advice, it's tailored to your relationship patterns and history.

Example: "Your score increased by 6 points this month, driven primarily by a 40% increase in appreciation exchanges and completing 3 weekly check-ins together. Keep up the gratitude practice!"

Trend Analysis & Predictions

Our algorithms don't just look backward, they look forward too. Based on your historical patterns and current trajectory, we can predict where your score is heading and flag potential concerns before they become critical.

Think of it as an early warning system for relationship drift. If we notice a consistent downward trend across multiple dimensions, we'll alert you and provide targeted intervention strategies to help you reconnect.

Proactive Support: Connected identifies concerning patterns early and nudges you toward reconnection activities before distance becomes disconnection.

Not a Judgment. A Compass.

Your Connection Score isn't a grade on your relationship. It's not something to stress over or compare with other couples. It's a compass that points you toward intentional growth and deeper connection.

Every relationship has seasons. Busy work periods, health challenges, family stress, all of these naturally impact your score. What matters isn't maintaining perfection, it's staying aware, being intentional, and choosing connection even when life gets hard.

Think of your Connection Score as a partner in your relationship journey, not a judge. It celebrates your wins, highlights areas for growth, and keeps you focused on what truly matters: building a relationship that thrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Connection Score calculated?

Your Connection Score is calculated using a sophisticated algorithm that analyzes multiple aspects of your relationship activity in the Connected app. It combines:

  • Daily question engagement and answer alignment: How often you participate and how well your answers reflect mutual understanding
  • Mood check-in patterns and emotional synchronization: Your emotional awareness and support for each other
  • Weekly check-in completeness and quality: Depth of reflection and consistency in relationship maintenance
  • Relationship assessment scores across multiple dimensions: Research-backed measures of communication, intimacy, conflict resolution, and more
  • Appreciation exchange frequency and reciprocity: How often you express gratitude and whether it's mutual
  • Streak consistency showing ongoing commitment: Your dedication to showing up for each other day after day

Each component is weighted based on relationship research, and the algorithm continuously learns from your patterns to provide an accurate, personalized score from 0-100.

Can I improve my Connection Score?

Absolutely. Your Connection Score is designed to be actionable, not just informational. You can improve it by:

  • Engaging regularly with daily questions: Consistency matters more than perfection. Even a few minutes a day makes a difference.
  • Completing weekly check-ins together: These deeper reflections significantly boost your score and relationship health.
  • Sharing appreciations and gratitude: Regular appreciation has one of the biggest impacts on both your score and relationship satisfaction.
  • Taking relationship assessments: These provide valuable baseline data and help you track improvement in specific dimensions.
  • Being consistent with mood check-ins: Emotional awareness and support are foundational to connection.
  • Following AI coaching recommendations: Personalized suggestions based on your unique patterns and needs.

The app provides specific suggestions based on your score and trends, helping you focus on areas that will have the biggest impact on your relationship health.

What's a good Connection Score?

Connection Scores typically range from 40-90 for most couples. Here's how to think about different score ranges:

  • 70-80: Indicates a healthy, engaged relationship with consistent communication and connection. This is where most thriving couples land.
  • Above 80: Suggests exceptional relationship health with deep emotional alignment and regular intentional engagement. This level requires consistent effort and prioritization.
  • 50-70: Shows a solid foundation with room for more consistent engagement. Many couples in this range benefit from establishing daily connection rituals.
  • Below 50: Signals that the relationship may need more attention and intentionality. This isn't a failure, it's a wake-up call to recommit to connection.

Remember, your score is personal to your relationship journey. What matters most is the trend over time and your commitment to growth together. A couple at 65 who's been climbing from 50 is in better shape than a couple at 75 who's been declining from 85.

How often does my Connection Score update?

Your Connection Score updates in real-time as you engage with the app. Every daily question answered, mood check-in completed, appreciation shared, or weekly check-in finished contributes to your score immediately.

You'll see your overall score update throughout the day, while monthly charts provide a broader view of trends over time. This real-time feedback helps you understand exactly how your daily actions impact your relationship health.

The sub-scores update on the same cadence, so you can see which specific dimensions are improving as you take action. This immediate feedback loop makes it easy to connect your efforts with results, reinforcing positive relationship behaviors.
