About DinnerBank

We believe dinner should bring people together, not stress them out.

DinnerBank started with a simple observation: neighbors are already cooking dinner every night. What if we made it ridiculously easy to share meals with neighbors?

How it works

You make a double batch of your famous chili. Your neighbor down the street claims it with tokens. You coordinate pickup. Everyone wins.

When you need a night off, you spend those banked tokens on someone else's homemade curry, lasagna, or soup. It's a potluck on your own schedule, powered by trust and good food.

Why tokens?

Tokens keep things fair and flowing. Every serving you share earns one token. Claim a 4-serving meal? That's 4 tokens. No money changes hands, no awkward IOUs—just a simple system that rewards generosity.

The mission

We're building neighborhoods where:

• Home cooks feel appreciated
• Busy people still eat real food
• Food waste becomes food shared
• Strangers become dinner companions

Who we are

DinnerBank was built by people who miss the days when borrowing a cup of sugar meant you'd actually meet your neighbor. We're a small, mission-driven team working to prove that technology can bring us closer together—not just more connected.
