What do you do if you start event detection and suddenly attending events becomes illegal? You rely on cultural shift and support. Today, the $ 11 million-funded IRL calendar app is moving from In Real Life to In Remote Life. Now he will focus on helping people find, plan, RSVP, plan, share and communicate about virtual events, from live gigs to esports tournaments and Zoom cocktails.
Coronavirus can make IRL relevant for a wider audience, because before the event, “only what was around you mattered. But now with In Remote Life, content has no geographic limits, ”said IRL co-founder and CEO Abe Shafi. “The need for geometric progression is higher because every person’s routine is violated.” To date, IRL has taken 138th place in the US App Store, which makes it the most popular calendar application, even higher than Google’s (No. 168).
