    About Dating Industry Insights

    Dating Industry Insights (DII) is an independent B2B intelligence platform covering the global online dating industry. We publish original research, financial analysis, regulatory tracking, and investigative reporting.

    DII was founded in 2026 by dating industry veterans with more than two decades of experience building and operating dating platforms. We created DII because we believe the dating industry needs independent, accountability-driven coverage that serves the interests of users, investors, regulators, and the public — not the platforms themselves.

    We operate with no advertising from the companies we cover. Our reports are independently researched, funded, and published. Our analysis draws on regulatory filings, SEC and Companies House data, academic research, law enforcement statistics, Ofcom publications, and direct product testing. Reports are published under the editorial oversight of the DII team and are not reviewed or approved by any dating platform, technology company, or regulatory body.
