The story

Founded in 2014 as '3nder', a niche app for couples seeking thirds, Feeld rebranded in 2016 after legal pressure from Tinder. The company broadened its scope to serve the full spectrum of ethical non-monogamy, kink, and alternative relationships, growing to 14 million members. It operates a subscription-based model ('Majestic' tier) with a small, remote-first team of ~100 employees, remaining privately held with formerly VC-backed status.
