Discord
Voice, video and text chat platform organized around servers and communities.
About Discord
Discord is an American instant messaging and VoIP social platform that allows communication through voice calls, video calls, text messaging, and media. Communication can be private or in virtual communities called "servers". It runs on Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, iPadOS, Linux, and in web browsers. It is primarily used by gamers, but the share of users interested in other topics is growing.
Discord was conceived by Jason Citron and Stanislav Vishnevskiy. It was publicly released in May 2015. As of 2025, it has 200 million monthly active users. Humam Sakhnini became its Chief Executive Officer in April 2025.
Jason Citron founded the social gaming network OpenFeint and later sold it to GREE in 2011.
