History

Partiful was founded in 2020 by Joy Tao and Shreya Murthy,[2] who met while working at Palantir Technologies.[3] Finding it hard to build community in her twenties as her friends migrated from Facebook to various social media platforms, Murthy envisioned a central online location for organizing events through texts instead of email. While Partiful launched as a website during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, by 2021 it started to gain followers.[4]

The platform gained significant traction in 2022, also securing $20 million in Series A funding that year.[5] The service has seen significant adoption among Gen Z, millennials and startup founders, with the majority of users under the age of 30.[6][7][8][9]

The company has claimed "millions" of active users by the end of 2023.[10] Partiful expanded into iOS and Android apps in 2024.[11] [12][13]

In October 2024, the Partiful website was used to circulate invitations to a Timothée Chalamet look-alike contest in Washington Square Park which generated over 2,500 RSVPs.[14]

As of 2025, Partiful was used in over 100 countries.[15]
