Fizz is an American social media network founded in 2020 by two Stanford University students. The application focuses on college specific groups where students can anonymously create posts and comment and upvote other posts. It is currently accessible at more than 80 colleges around the US as of August 2023 and is aiming to be at 250 by January 2024.[1] Fizz has had three successful rounds of funding: Seed Funding ($4.5 million in September 2022), Series A ($12 million in November 2022), and Series B ($25 million in August 2023), giving it a combined $41.5 million of capital.[2]
