About Polari Group

Polari Group is a Houston-based company building thoughtful apps for the LGBTQ+ community. Our name comes from Polari, an underground slang language used by gay men in 20th-century Britain — a coded vocabulary that allowed our community to find each other when finding each other was dangerous. We carry that history forward, building software that helps queer people connect with sophistication, dignity, and care.
