Our vision is to power everything you do in the real world with your friends and make all of your real world moments as meaningful as possible.

So today we are most known for powering private social events, the parties that you're throwing, the parties that your friends are throwing.

And that's a really big part of people's social lives, but it's not the only part.

We go to live events and concerts and shows and pop-ups.

We go shopping.

We travel with our friends.

We go to plays and movies.

And so there's so much else that makes up how we spend time in the real world that we think Partiful has a huge opportunity to facilitate.

And so...

Last year, we launched support for public events where events can be distributed much more widely, and we launched a Discover feed.

So if you go into the app, you can tap our Discover tab, and you can browse incredibly interesting hand-curated events that are happening around you.

We actually have a human curator on staff who's actually taking an editorial lens to the content that's appearing on your Discover feed.

And so what you're seeing there isn't just every event we have.

It's not even something that an algorithm came up with.

It's a human being saying, hey, I think you should go to this.

So we have pop-ups.
