Intention is
attractive.
The era of mindless swiping is over. We are building a curated community for people who value depth, standards, and meaningful connection.
2,400+ people on the waitlist this week.
You're busy.
You don't have time for games.
The average person spends 90 minutes a day on dating apps, mostly swiping left. We stripped away the gamification, the endless stacks, and the ghosting culture to respect the one thing you can't get back: Your Time.
The Editorial Feed
No left or right. Just down. Scroll through profiles like you read a magazine. Take in the whole person—their voice, their style, their values—before you decide.
High-Signal Interactions
Likes are cheap. We use comments and 'Roses' to signal genuine interest. If someone reaches out on d8ning, they mean it.
Verified Identity
Catfishing is so 2015. Every profile on d8ning is verified via selfie-matching technology to ensure the person you see is the person you meet.
"We believe that romance is serious business. It deserves a platform that encourages vulnerability, not validation."
Somewhere along the way, dating apps became gaming apps. The dopamine hit of a "match" became more important than the actual date.
We are deleting the game. No streaks, no coins, no hidden algorithms designed to keep you addicted. Just a clean, beautiful space for adults to meet other adults.
