Houseparty was a face-to-face social networking and group video chat mobile app developed by Life on Air, Inc. Launched in 2016, it let up to eight friends video chat together in shared rooms and play built-in games such as Heads Up! and trivia. Epic Games acquired Houseparty in June 2019, and the service was discontinued in October 2021 with its team folded into Epic. Surfaced as a Greylock portfolio company, it is retained in the API Evangelist network as a historical consumer-social profile; the product is defunct and publishes no developer API, documentation, or SDKs.
