Founded in 2019 by former Palantir engineers Shreya Murthy and Joy Tao, Partiful provides a single-page event experience where hosts create customizable invitations, share links via messaging, and guests RSVP without downloading an app. The platform has evolved toward a discovery-focused social layer for in-person events, adding collaborative photo albums, attendee interaction tools and options to sell tickets. Partiful reports rapid growth—over 5 million users and more than 2 million new users in Q1 2025—and high engagement metrics, including over 200,000 App Store ratings and roughly 217,000 reviews at a 5.0 rating. Its business model keeps core functions free while monetizing select events through ticket sales and premium features. The company has expanded to more than 100 countries and plans to use Series A proceeds to build new features and scale globally. Controversies around the founders' prior employment at Palantir have been addressed publicly, with the company stating it does not share user data with that firm.
