What is Clubhouse?

Clubhouse is an audio-based social networking app launched in 2020 that allows people to create or join chat rooms where users have real-time discussions on different topics.

Some key things to know about Clubhouse:

• It is based completely around audio - there is no text or video involved. Users join audio chat rooms where they can listen, join the conversation, and interact.
• The platform quickly became popular, especially with those in tech, business, and venture capital circles. It created a buzz for its discussions between tech luminaries and access to exclusive conversations.
• Rooms on Clubhouse are started by a moderator who chooses the topic and speakers. Other users can join just to listen or raise their hand to join the discussion.
• It operates on an invite-only basis so you need to know someone already on the platform to join. This added to its perception as an exclusive network.
• Over time it has loosened restrictions and opened up more access. It faces increasing competition from other major social platforms adding audio rooms.
• Key differentiators are the audio-based interaction and ability to connect with people and discussions not available elsewhere. But the platform faces challenges in continuing growth and monetization.
