Global dating · 18+ · swimwear-mandatory
Tanline is the dating app for adults who are done with the right angle and the AI portrait. Real swimwear, real bodies, verified before the first DM — so the dater on the other side of the screen is the dater on the date.

Intent tag: Casual, longer possible
The manifesto
That is a different product, a different pipeline, and a different category. The body-positive casual-encounter lane finally gets the platform it’s been asking for — one that takes the real body, the real age gate, and the honest intent tag seriously.
The four principles
01 · Honesty
Most apps ask for a face; we ask for the actual body, in swimwear, on day one. Catfish lives in the gap between the photo and the person. Closing that gap is the entire product.
02 · Adults only
Yoti, AgeChecker and Persona gate every profile before the first DM. The swimwear check + age-estimation API is how Tanline closes the loophole mainstream apps left open.
03 · Honest intent
Casual, one-night, short-term or longer — every new profile picks an intent tag, and the matching surfaces compatible tags first. The product does not set the line; the user does.
04 · Body-positive
WooPlus and Bustr flirt with the lane; Tanline ships it. A $12B category for adults tired of being served with filters finally gets a platform that takes them seriously.
“Other apps let you hide behind an angle. Tanlinewants the real shape on the beach — that is what makes the date an actual date.”
