Perry Street Software is Jack'd, SCRUFF, and BKDR.com. We run some of the world's largest gay, bi, trans and queer social dating apps on iOS and Android.

BKDR is a map-based web app that provides a social, queer, and sex-positive experience for users to connect with one another digitally and in real life.
