​What do they do?
​

Lex, is a text-centered social app that connects queer lovers and friends by providing a space for womxn, trans, genderqueer, gender non-conforming, intersex, two spirit, and non-binary people to meet and create meaningful, heartfelt connections. The app, apart from queer-owned and operated, is lo-fi and text-based, as Kelly Rakowski firmly believes that the selfie should come second when building relationships.
