Kink is specific. Your dating app should be too.

Torc is a dating app we’re building for gay and bi men into leather, rubber, gear and whatever else you’re into. It isn’t live yet. We’re starting with a web version, with iOS planned to follow.

Registration and the waitlist are not open yet.

What we’re building

These are our plans, not features you can use today. The details may change as development continues.

Search by what you’re into

Type a word and find the men who listed it. An uncommon interest shouldn’t get buried in a grid sorted by distance.

Look past your zip code

Browse another city before you get there, and plan around a trip or an event weekend, so you’re not starting from zero when you land.

Choose who sees what

Keep your favorites private, and decide what’s visible and to whom.

Leave out the filler

No fake profiles to pad the numbers, and no sponsor messages in your inbox.

Leather. Rubber. Gear. Pup. Bondage. Uniform. Boots. Whatever you’d type in that search box.

Torc isn’t built yet. Here’s the plan.

  1. Start with the web

    We’re developing the web version first, with iOS planned to follow.

  2. Build for shared interests

    Search, travel and control over what you share guide the product.

  3. Open when it’s ready

    Registration is closed while we build and review the service. There’s no announced launch date.
