About Fizz
Fizz is the go-to social platform for Gen Z to connect with their community. College Fizz communities feature a private, moderated feed of anonymous posts from verified students, making it the most entertaining and authentic way to experience student life. On Global Fizz, all of Gen Z can connect across their shared experiences and identities.
Users can ask questions, share memes, post polls, and direct message others-all while keeping control of their identity. Safety, inclusion, and authenticity are core to everything we build.
Founded by two Stanford dropouts, Fizz launched at Stanford in 2021 and quickly reached over 95% student adoption. Since then, we've expanded to 400+ colleges, started generating ad revenue, and raised >$40M from investors such as Lightspeed, NEA, and Owl. Our mission: build a social network for the 99% of life that doesn't make it onto entertainment platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
Where We're Headed

* Set up tools and processes that promote fast, high-quality software development and strong engineering culture.
