Join us for this exciting Fireside Chat with Tyler Confrey-Maloney, Founder of Faves!

Tyler (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tyler-maloney-4612b480/) founded Undercover Colors in 2014 as a senior in college, which creates products that allow people to easily test their drink for signs of drug tampering. In 2018, he left to pursue an MBA from Stanford where he was a Campus Investment Partner at The MBA Fund. After graduating from Stanford, he founded Faves.

Faves is a new app where friends connect over content. Users (or curators as they’re called) post their favorite content to Faves and follow each other to see what their friends like. The app has a Tiktok-like interface with one piece of content per screen. Faves has also leaned into social audio. Users can reply to posts with 20 seconds of audio and even add popular soundbites from TV Shows like The Office and Schitt’s Creek.

Early adopters include Marissa Mayer, VCs at Sequoia/a16z/Lightspeed and Heads of Product at TikTok, Robinhood, Google and Facebook. The company has retention metrics on par with early Snapchat and a waitlist nearing 17,000.

Now Hiring: Faves just closed a $4M seed (unannounced) and is hiring a Head of Growth, ML Engineer, Analytics Lead and Fullstack Engineer.

Early Access: Faves is letting Xooglers jump their 17,000 person waitlist by signing up here.
