Post.news

Post.news was a social-news and microblogging platform positioned as a Twitter/X alternative, backed by a16z and founded by former Waze CEO Noam Bardin. It was added to the API Evangelist network as a stub for enrichment. As of this enrichment pass the company has no discoverable public API surface, developer program, or documentation, and the consumer web property appears to be offline (see x-website-status). This profile is retained as a portfolio-lead record.

Post.news is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Social, Social Media, News, and Microblogging.
