# Our mission

Here’s the truth: we’re spending more time on our phones than with each other.

Every day, it feels harder to put down the phone and show up in real life. Social media, endless feeds, and takeout on the couch are stealing moments we could spend with friends, family, and good food. Life’s too short to watch it play out on a screen.

Meanwhile, local restaurants are out there doing the real work: rolling silverware, plating perfection, and creating the kind of spaces where life happens. They’re the heartbeat of every city. Where we laugh, celebrate, and make memories. And newsflash: they need us as much as we need them.

**That’s where Offline comes in.**

## We’re building a business that helps people explore their cities + make memories.

We’re here to remind you what it feels like to actually show up. Dinners that turn into long conversations, the thrill of finding your new favorite spot, and moments that make you feel truly connected to your city. Oh, and we’re here to make it stupidly easy to try new restaurants.

Minutes of Human Connection

We know — ditching the couch for a night out can feel like a big ask. That’s why we do the heavy lifting. We handpick the best local spots, partner with amazing restaurants, and give you the credits (and the push) to make it happen.

With our Restaurant Club, it’s not just about where you eat; it’s about rediscovering what makes your city unforgettable.

### New Restaurants Tried

How we spend our time shapes who we are. And right now, we’re missing out on the good stuff. When you use Offline, you’re not just getting deals and finding new places to eat. You’re supporting the chefs, servers, and restaurant owners who pour everything into creating real-life experiences. Our members have spent millions supporting independently-owned restaurants, keeping these local gems thriving. And while you're at it, you’re making time for the people who matter by rediscovering the joy of being part of this community.

**Welcome to Offline.**

## MEET THE TEAM

We’re a scrappy team of entrepreneurs, creatives, and developers—all brought together by a common goal: to harness the power of technology and turn it into a tool that helps people rediscover and reconnect with the world around them.

In short, we’ll opt for dine-in over delivery every time.
