partiful will not make money. there is no pitch at scale. the TAM is small. there is no market opportunity. no moat. no one has a thesis on the space.
investors gave us money to help u party and that is what we are here to do. enjoy it babes
Small teams are mighty.
13 people built Instagram to $1B acquisition
17 people built Linear to 1,000 customers
40 people built Notion to 1M+ users
When you bring together a small & senior team - amazing things can happen.
Excited to announce Partiful Ventures' Pre-pre-pre-seed program. We invest pre-idea, pre-birth, and pre-conception. In fact, we invest in founders' parents before they even procreate, and take 7% equity in the child's future company.
products like partiful don’t happen by chance.
they happen because at some point the founders were crying in an office bathroom from having to build enterprise software
as an event tech PM, I'm currently wondering how
@partiful
will make money.
too many competitors to charge or run ads.
could be part of long term vertical integration play
my guess is it will be purchased by a large alcohol/party brand
Excited to finally announce Partiful's redesigned party pages 🎉 🍾🚀. Over the next few weeks, we'll be rolling out this new-and-improved experience to hosts. If you'd like early access, let us know!

A 🧵 on how this came to life 👇
After much discussion, we’ve made the difficult decision to wind down our events business. It was hard to admit, but the space is dead.
Excited to reveal our new direction...
TAXIFUL: TurboTax for hot people
It’s Women’s History Month which is also Partiful History Month so here’s a story:
In February 2020, two women founded a party startup. Nothing bad happened after that.
stocking our all-women office:
✅ tampons
✅ midol
✅ some cute lil decor from target
✅ matcha
✅ nail files
✅ blankets bc freezing building is still the patriarchy
✅ chocolate covered almonds
✅ sage
✅ burn book of all the toxic men we worked for before joining partiful
Did You Know? Partiful is recognized as a Systemically Important Partying Institution (SIPI) and as such our partiers are protected by the Federal Partying Corporation (FPC) and subject to appropriate partying regulations to ensure all parties pop off successfully.
We’re starting to collab on launch parties, happy hours, dinner parties, crypto parties & parties-slash-networking-things (but they have to be actual parties fr). DM us if you want a 🔥 party
working at partiful is funny bc we tell people we're building a product to help you make memories and the memories are like. a masked guy eating cheeseballs in union square park
