EyeDetect® makes waves on the British dating show, “The Honesty Box”
By Ashley Mazerolle, Marketing —
EyeDetect® brings truth to reality dating, transforming The Honesty Box into a bold experiment in honesty and real connection.
After reading the behind-the-scenes interview with Sarah Tyekiff and Shaun Parry, the executive producers of The Honesty Box, we at Converus couldn’t be more thrilled to see EyeDetect® at the heart of such an innovative and bold reality dating experiment.
What stood out was how The Honesty Box dared to challenge one of the biggest issues in modern dating: dishonesty. With dating apps and social media making it easier to present curated versions of ourselves, deception has unfortunately become the norm. That’s why we’re proud to see EyeDetect® used as a tool to bring back trust, truth, and authenticity.
EyeDetect® isn’t just any lie detector—it’s a next-gen solution created by top scientists at the University of Utah. It measures subtle changes in eye behavior, like blink rate and pupil size, to detect lies with 86–88% accuracy. It delivers results fast—within 15 to 30 minutes—making it ideal for both screening and specific, issue-based testing. It’s already being used around the world by law enforcement, employers, and government agencies. And now, it’s transforming reality TV.
What The Honesty Box proves is that EyeDetect® isn’t just a scientific tool—it’s a storytelling game-changer. Instead of using lie detection as a “gotcha” moment, this show turns honesty into the foundation for emotional growth and real connections. By incorporating EyeDetect® into their Honesty Box, the producers created a space where cast members had no choice but to be truthful—and viewers could trust what they were seeing.
We also love how the show introduced participants to EyeDetect® before filming, giving them a chance to understand the tech and feel confident in its fairness. That transparency matters to us, because EyeDetect® is built to protect integrity and deliver unbiased results.
In a world where dating often feels like a guessing game, EyeDetect® gives singles—and audiences—something rare: clarity. As a company committed to helping people find the truth, we’re inspired by the creative way The Honesty Box used our technology.
To the producers, cast, and crew: thank you for showing the world that honesty still matters—and proving that when it comes to love, the eyes don’t lie®.
