Company Overview
Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted.

-
Authenticity – We act with transparency, sharing our intentions and actions openly.
-
Courage – We embrace ambitious goals and challenges with boldness and resilience.
-
Empathy – We lead with compassion, listening with care and considering others’ perspectives as humans first.
