Raya

Raya (legal entity Raya App Inc) is a private, membership-based global community for dating, friendship, and professional networking, founded by Daniel Gendelman in 2014 and launched in February 2015 out of Los Angeles, California. Membership is application-only: applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis by a global committee, an Instagram handle is required for identity verification, and accepted members choose a 1, 6, or 12 month paid subscription. The product is iOS-only (App Store id 957215308, minimum iOS 17.0) and is known for photo-slideshow profiles set to music, screenshot detection, and a community drawn heavily from creative industries. Public sources report roughly $15.5M raised from investors including Cowboy Ventures, Dreamers VC and S32, and the company appears on secondary marketplaces such as Forge Global and EquityZen. It is a consumer application company, not an API provider: enrichment probed rayatheapp.com, raya.co, api.rayatheapp.com, api.raya.co and icecream.rayatheapp.com and found no developer portal, no documentation, no OpenAPI/GraphQL/AsyncAPI contract, no MCP server, and no A2A agent card. The api.rayatheapp.com host is a private first-party mobile backend that returns 404 to every unauthenticated path. This profile is identity-only pending a public API surface.

Raya is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Consumer, Social Networking, Dating, and Community.

Raya’s developer surface includes pricing, signup flow, support, and 11 more developer resources.
