Dekkoo

Dekkoo is a Philadelphia-based subscription streaming service with a focus on LGBT+ related content, particularly by and for gay men.[1][2] It features a mixture of programs from other sources and original content,[1][3] and derives its income from subscription fees rather than advertising.[4] It is available on streaming devices such as Roku, Apple TV, Chromecast, and Amazon Fire.[5]

The service was co-founded in 2015 by Derek Curl and Brian Sokel.[1][2] During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the company launched a short-film contest.[6][7][8]
