Padlet

Padlet is a digital collaboration platform that enables users to create virtual bulletin boards, called "padlets," for sharing text, images, videos, and files. Founded in 2012 by Nitesh Goel and Pranav Piyush, Padlet originated from a research project at the National University of Singapore. The company is based in San Francisco, California, and is part of the Y Combinator startup accelerator. Padlet offers both free and paid services, including Padlet Backpack for schools and Padlet Briefcase for businesses, which provide enhanced features and support. Users can customize their padlets and integrate them into websites, making them suitable for various applications. The platform is widely used in educational settings, community engagement projects, and public campaigns, with over ten million users globally. Padlet generates an annual revenue of approximately $4 million and enjoys significant web traffic, with over 7 million visits.
