What is Fizz

Fizz is the hottest Gen Z social platform in the world. Having started as America’s biggest college social app, Fizz now enables Gen Z globally to connect around shared experiences and identities. College Fizz communities feature a private, moderated feed of posts from verified students, making it the most entertaining and authentic way to experience student life.

Our newest product, Global Fizz, brings together Gen Z both domestically and internationally, providing a space to connect around the 99% of life not represented on entertainment platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Fizz is on a mission to bring social back to social media.

What We've Done

We first launched Fizz at Stanford in July 2021 and have since seen >95% of undergraduates join the app, half of whom use Fizz every day. Since raising a $25M Series B in July 2023, we have established ourselves as the dominant social app across 1000+ colleges, begun generating revenue through advertising, and started expanding beyond college communities.

Most recently, Fizz reached #1 overall on the App Store charts in multiple Middle Eastern countries.

Where We're Going

We have three primary goals for 2026:

• Continue expanding across the entire U.S. college market
• Accelerate revenue growth through our advertising business
• Rapidly expand beyond college students, both domestically and internationally
