FAST COMPANY - Grindr CEO George Arison outlines an ambitious vision to grow the LGBTQ+ platform beyond hookups, introducing AI-powered features like the "A-List" chat summary tool and launching telemedicine services, including ED treatments through Woodwork. Under Arison's leadership, Grindr reported $345M in revenue in 2024 (up 33%) with over 1M paying users, bucking the trend of stagnation in dating apps. Arison stresses a "hardcore" work ethic, likens his leadership style to Elon Musk's, and positions Grindr as a digital "gayborhood," aiming to expand into areas like wellness and travel.
