About Airtime Stock
At Airtime, we’re changing the way people interact online, making the internet a more welcoming and truly social place. Social networks have the power to bring people together, but they have often proven to do the opposite. In a world of social platforms that filter and curate our lives, social media has made us antisocial. That’s why we created Airtime. It’s a new kind of social space. No matter what you’re into—lofi hip hop, airbrush makeup, or improv comedy—drop in any time. There’s a room for you on Airtime that’s always open, live, and ready to welcome you in. Our company was founded by Sean Parker and is backed by Accel, Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, Google Ventures, Kleiner Perkins, and a host of other incredible partners. We have a world-class leadership team and over 100 wonderful employees in three offices across the country. We're working hard to create the most welcoming online live social space out there, not only in our product but also in our organization.
