Smiletime, Inc. powers pop.in, an app for spontaneous, ephemeral live connection. On pop.in, civility and inclusivity are the bedrock of dynamic conversations, which are hosted in an environment that allows for discussions to be as multifaceted as the people having them. An unlimited number of people can join pop.ins and use video, audio, text and images to have nuanced dialogue. A pop.in only lasts as long as people are in them, so by their definition, pop.ins are never empty and never lonely. And with the ability to create "ground rules" that are unique to every pop.in, hosts are empowered to be deliberate in setting a tenor and intention for their conversations from the get-go. Smiletime, Inc. believes technology can and should enable honest dialogue and empathetic connection, and that's what they've created with pop.in.

Smiletime, Inc. was founded by Alex Kruglov, Sharon Chang, and Jace Hall in 2014, and is located in Los Angeles, California.
