Romeo (styled ROMEO, and until 2021 named PlanetRomeo) is a social network for gay, bisexual, queer and transgender people. The site was started as a hobby and was called GayRomeo in October 2002 by Planetromeo GmbH in Berlin, Germany. Initially only available in German, the site — and later, its mobile app — have evolved into an international platform.
