Too Long; Didn't Read
Houseparty is a Facetime / Group Whatsapp call look-alike application. Founder Ben Rubin wanted to make it feel like less work and more spontaneous. He realized that humans still have an unmet need — something that replicates being together in real-time. Not having to invite anyone for a group call or fixing times in advance and just hopping on to an app to connect with someone who’s online is SPONTANEOUS. Houseparty was born in Fall of 2016.
