How is Grapevine doing?

Thoughts on the Grapevine app so far. Would you invest in Grapevine if you had the opportunity? Do you think there is potential?

Hi @Grapevine team and Community marketing enthusiast who have worked on 0-1/1-10, We are building a community app related to dating and figuring out unpaid marketing channels what will work or not since we don’t have much money to do paid marketing. How did you started grapevine and manage community effects, did you go to paid channels? Do you believe in grow fast or die or growing slow in community apps is also fine since credibility comes with size of community. What are the effective channels we can explore apart from twitter and instagram? Members even if you don’t have idea please like the post to get it highlighted it will be great help for us❤️

Pardon me for being so naive here. I want to understand this new type of startup trend. 1. What’s the source of motivation for their employees to stick to their jobs? 2. How do apps like these think of monetizing? There is no ad, no paid feature per say. 3. Grapevine has probably built some kind of a platform. But how is this different from platforms like twitter, facebook or any other social media platform? 4. How much money do you think has been invested into building apps like this? 5. The DAU of this app based on my wild guess must be around 5K. I may be completely wrong here. 6. What according to you is the current valuation of grapevine? 7. Saumil Tripathi, the founder of grapevine is ex-google employee as per his LinkedIn profile. There is no mention of any other any other startup he owns. 8. Grapevine has a team of 10 employees (as per Saumil’s post a few weeks back) How do these guys make money? I’m awestruck by the guys working in grapevine. Building an app of this quality with no monetization in sight! Pounce on this thread with your thoughts guys!

Did sequoia have an ownership target? How does your team and you feel post the funding? What can we expect as a next step? How soon will the monetisation bug kick in? https://entrackr.com/2023/10/exclusive-peak-xv-acquires-over-21-stake-in-grapevine/

Congratulations Grapevine team.. Finally, they raised funding from Peak XV Partners.. Time to DM founders for a job 😂

Hey Folks, I thought I should do an AMA specially after yesterday’s rumours that I have been laid off from Grapevine - this isn’t true 😂. It is however true that I have been PIPed and have a much reduced role now xD To be serious: Happy to answer any Grapevine questions that you may have. Features, ideas, questions on why we do what we do welcome - I’ll answer what I can! Cheers!

Do you have a startup idea but haven't been ever able to gather the courage to get started? Tell us about it! Why do you think it could work, and what's holding you back?"
