Yope

651 North Broad Street, Middletown, Delaware, 19709, United States

Overview

Yope builds a social app centered on small, private "micro communities" where users share photos, videos, messages and soon play mini-games, with accounts private by default and no algorithmic feed. The company emphasizes an AI-native approach that uses AI for connection features and mini-games rather than content generation. Yope has nearly 15 million registered users who collectively share between 10 million and 20 million pieces of content daily, and the company reports that more than 50% of users open the app at least five days per week. Around 20% of active users have invited older family members to join, indicating cross-generational adoption. The current team is about 35 people, the product has been in its present form for roughly two years, and the company has undergone two prior pivots.
