A few weeks after GameStop mania last year, came Clubhouse mania, as the biggest names in tech started to join impromptu audio conversations on Clubhouse, the invite-only app launched during the pandemic.
Clubhouse’s user base had exploded and the company quickly hit an eye-watering $4bn valuation. In fact, so quick was its success that it prompted a lot of big tech to explore the audio room feature for themselves. Twitter launched Twitter Spaces. Facebook launched audio rooms. So did LinkedIn. Slack made something called Huddles.
Since then, things have cooled for Clubhouse. A much-hyped Android launch rekindled things briefly, but recent downloads are now running at just over a million a month, way down on the ~9 million at the app's peak.
