"Tinder Robot" Suit Design

Capritor partnered with Gaslight FX Studio and a leading commercial ad agency to bring a bold promotional concept to life for Tinder. The project was part of Tinder’s first-ever Canada‑exclusive campaign promoting Face Check, a new anti‑bot verification system designed to eliminate fake profiles and build trust among users.

To communicate this message in a playful, unexpected way, the agency envisioned a fully wearable robot suit that could be worn by a performer and taken on “dates” with real people in downtown Toronto. Influencers amplified the stunt with social posts like “Are we dating robots now”, while hidden cameras captured the public’s reactions.

Capritor was brought in as Gaslight FX Studio’s digital department to design the robot from the ground up and leverage 3D scanning and 3D printing to deliver a production‑ready costume without traditional molding or casting.
