Fam

We've raised more than $18 million in funding with Founders Fund leading our Series A, and were previously part of Y-Combinator's S'17 batch. Other notable investors include DST, Pear, Abstract VC, Scribble Ventures, among others. Fam is the best way to socialize on your phone in a way that's most similar to interacting in real life. We're a social network that helps you connect with friends and new people through live video chat. We believe that the way people socially interact on their phones is fundamentally broken, and causing widespread anxiety, insecurity, and loneliness - and we have the foundation to solve that for an entire generation. We went from zero to 2M+ users with 50+ video calls per user per day being performed in the app. We operate in-person in New York City. As founders, we've led Product, Engineering, and Design teams at Instagram and Facebook.
