DING fyi

Broadcast time sensitive updates to people who choose to hear from you. Ding is an opt-in notification platform built for privacy, clarity, and control.

Ding is a utility-focused notification and messaging app designed to enable intentional, permission-based communication outside of traditional email and SMS. The app allows users to send focused notifications (“Dings”) containing text, images, or short videos to recipients who have explicitly opted in to receive them. Ding is not a social network, advertising platform, or bulk messaging service, and it does not scrape contacts or send unsolicited messages.

All content is user-generated and initiated by the sender. Recipients maintain full control over notification preferences, including muting, disabling, or unsubscribing from senders at any time. Ding provides basic delivery and engagement indicators (such as sent and viewed status) solely to help senders understand whether their message was received; no tracking occurs outside of the Ding platform.

Ding does not publish, curate, or promote content, and does not algorithmically amplify messages. It functions purely as a communication tool where responsibility for message content remains with the sender. The app is intended for personal, professional, and creator use cases where timely, respectful, and opt-in communication is required.
