Grindr Inc.
A maker of one of the world's largest dating and social apps for gay, bisexual, and queer men, Grindr uses GPS to show nearby profiles in a grid, helping users connect for dating, friendship, and more. Founder Joel Simkhai launched it in Los Angeles in 2009, partly because he kept wondering who around him was gay; the name riffs on a coffee grinder, meant to "mix people up together." Fun fact: the team wanted a name that worked as a verb and sounded tough and masculine, so it landed on Grindr rather than something softer.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over all recorded history: -20.47M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
