Founding beta By invitation · Adults 18+
Private introductions.
Both people choose.
Meet someone without putting your life on display. Tell D8 a little about yourself. When an introduction is available, you each choose whether to begin.
Starting in the San Francisco Bay Area. Free during beta.
How an introduction opens
Jules
28 · Oakland
Usually cooking for friends, finding a new walking route, or halfway through a good book. Looking for a relationship with room to laugh.
Illustrative example. Jules is fictional; this is not a member profile.
From invitation to introduction
A clear next step.
At your own pace.
Start with your own words. Keep your preferences private. Choose whether you’re open to an introduction.
- 01
Create your private profile.
After joining, share your general region, a few interests, and what you’re looking for. Write a short summary you’d be happy to share.
Your profile isn’t listed in a directory.
- 02
Choose whether to begin.
D8 looks for introductions using your preferences. Check your dashboard when one is available. You can accept or pass before any profile is revealed.
An introduction may take time.
- 03
Say hello, together.
When both people accept, your display names, ages, regions, and chosen summaries open. You can then talk privately inside D8.
Either person can close the connection.
Privacy & choice
You decide what opens.
And when it closes.
No public directory. No profile to swipe through. Your preferences stay private, and selected details are shared only after mutual acceptance.
Read the privacy noticeYour words, your summary.
Write the introduction card yourself. Your other profile preferences aren’t shared with a connection.
A choice on both sides.
Passing is private. You can also pause introductions, block a connection, report a concern, or delete your account.
Clear about AI.
Private messages use AI moderation before sending. The optional reply coach uses AI too. Neither sends messages on your behalf.
The first group
Small on purpose.
Honest about the beginning.
D8 is a founding beta for adults interested in private dating introductions. We’re starting with a small, invitation-only group in the San Francisco Bay Area so we can learn from members and review concerns directly.
There’s no guarantee of an introduction or an immediate reply. Availability depends on who joins and whether preferences align. Outside the Bay Area? You can request access for a later group.
Before you join
A few fair questions.
Why do I choose before seeing a profile?
The first choice is whether you’re open to an introduction. Selected profile details open only when both people accept. You can decide whether to continue after that, and close the connection at any time.
Who can see my information?
Your profile isn’t public. An accepted connection can see your display name, age, region, and chosen summary. D8 processes your private preferences to make introductions, and messages go to our AI provider for moderation. Read the privacy notice for access, processing, and retention details.
What does the beta cost?
Membership is free during the founding beta. There are usage limits while we test the service. Future pricing would be communicated before a paid plan begins.
How do invitations work?
Request an invitation with your email, general region, and what brings you here. Requests are reviewed for the small founding group. An invitation opens membership; it does not guarantee an introduction. Already have a code?
Contact D8
A question or concern?
You can contact the beta operator here, including about privacy or an account you can’t access. Include only what we need to help. This is a review queue, not live chat.

Members can also report a connected introduction from their dashboard. Read our ground rules before joining.
