Waveful is a social platform that helps users make friends and form communities around shared interests. Founded in 2020 by Steven and Dennis Motta and headquartered in Milan, the product emphasizes authentic human connection and creator/fan monetisation. The company reports rapid early traction: over three million downloads in less than six months, monthly growth exceeding 200% in the past year, and more than $1M in sales via a B2C model. Waveful plans to strengthen its presence in the United States, targeting 500,000 American users within 12 months, and to invest in AI-first features to enhance the product. The team intends to hire 4–6 new roles in engineering, growth, and marketing to support expansion and product development.
