Questions

What kind of projects do you take on?

We specialize in digital products: apps, websites, platforms, and the brands behind them. Most of our clients are technology companies, AI startups, and Web3 projects.

What does a typical engagement look like?

We start with a discovery phase, then move into design and iteration. Most product projects run 8 to 12 weeks. For ongoing needs, our Buffet subscription offers unlimited requests.

Are you hiring?

Always. We run as a partnership, not an agency. If you're a designer or developer who cares deeply about product craft, we'd love to talk.

Open positions

Where is the team based?

Everywhere. Dine has been remote since day one. We have an office in Beijing, but our partners work from wherever they do their best work.

Do you also develop what you design?

Yes. We offer frontend development for production-ready websites. We also build and maintain our own software products, so we understand the full product lifecycle.

Do you work with international clients?

Absolutely. We've worked with companies across the US, Europe, and Asia. Our team communicates in both English and Chinese.

Do you do spec work?

No. Our time and craft are what we sell, and we don't give them away. That said, we're happy to do a free design review for potential clients to see if we're a good fit.

Why is your website in English?

Chinese web fonts haven't caught up with our standards yet. But please don't hesitate to reach out in Chinese.
