IRL (legal name Get Together, Inc.) was a San Francisco social calendar and group-messaging app that let people share and sync calendars with friends and follow venues, organizations and notable figures. It raised more than $200 million in venture capital, including a $170 million Series C led by SoftBank Vision Fund 2 in 2021 that valued the company at $1.17 billion. In June 2023 a special committee of the board reported that roughly 95 percent of the app's claimed users were automated or bot accounts, and the board voted to dissolve the company; the SEC charged founder and former CEO Abraham Shafi with fraud on July 31, 2024. The company is defunct: irl.com now serves only an asset-inquiry notice, the marketing and app hosts are abandoned Netlify shells, docs.irl.com (Postman-hosted developer docs) returns 404, and api.irl.com is a dangling CNAME to a deleted AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment. No public API, OpenAPI, SDK, or developer program remains.
IRL is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Social, Messaging, Event, and Calendar.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/irl: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
