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

In 2018, Offline was a successful and rapidly growing media business in Raleigh-Durham. Millions of people watched our videos, tens of thousands read our email newsletters, and we helped an entire generation of Raleighies discover amazing events and experiences in their city.
But something was missing. Our brand ethos (not to mention our name itself) was all about experiencing the real world, but our ad-based revenue model incentivized us to keep people on their phones scrolling and clicking to generate revenue.

And we had had enough. We wanted to build on a business model that worked with (not against) our mission. That incentivized expiration and benefited the local businesses that we cared so much about.
In March of 2018, we received our first subscription payments from our first 152 Members. In return, we introduced them to two of our favorite restaurants in Raleigh, and we knew right away that this was what we wanted to build.

Offline Today

We create thousands of IRL moments between members and partners that help communities thrive.

Every month, we play matchmaker between thousands of members and a choice network of incredible local businesses, creating a positive feedback loop of exploration, local love, and economic growth.
At the end of the day, everything comes down to community, and ours is held together by our Code of Conduct, a community contract that keeps the good vibes flowing during the thousands of monthly interactions between our members, our partner businesses, and our team. Everyone opts-in and commits to keeping the Offline fam healthy, happy, and harmonious.

OUR TEAM

We’re a renegade team of entrepreneurs, creatives, developers, and business consultants—all brought together by a shared passion harnessing the power of technology + 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.
