All of a sudden, everyone's talking about it: What's the Clubhouse app?

Similar to a radio conversation, with a conference in Zoom, with a podcast, Clubhouse is a lot on a single app.

Clubhouse is a social network based on audio conversations. Users can hear conversations, interviews and other discussions among people on different topics. It's the same as a podcast, but live and an added dose of exclusiveity.

Clubhouse is invitie-only, which means you can't just download it and create your account. Once you fill in the data, an existing member should invite you. As in real life, you don't go to a party if someone doesn't invite you.

After joining the clubhouse, you choose the topics that interest you: technology, books, business, health, music, and so on. How much information you give for your interests, how much more “chat room” private will recommend the app.

Conversations are like conference halls, where some talk and most listen. After the conversation is over, “andoma” closes. Conversations are not recorded, at least by the app itself, as users can find ways to register them. Application doesn't stop recording.

There are no photos and videos in the clubhouse users have only one profile picture and that's it. The name must be the real one. It's only available at IOS right now, but it's about to be launched in Android.

The clubhouse, which is now best known, was launched in March 2020 in the United States. It was then talked about exclusiveness itself; it was like joining a club in the real world. In May, the Clubhouse had only 1,500 users and was worth $100m.

Recently, “broke down” on the internet when Elon Musk because anyone other than him organised a conversation with Robinhood executive director Vlad Tenev. The conversation was broadcast live on YouTube.

That's all it took and the app went up at the top of the most downloaded app lists. Since February 1st, Clubhouse has more than 2 million users. In China, for example, e-commerce sites are giving users the opportunity to buy invitations to Clubhouse. Call codes are sold for 150-400 yen (2,300, $6,300).

Like AirBnb, Uber and SpaceX, the Clubhouse is considered “unwork start” (literary starup; starting a company founded by one or more entrepreneurs to develop a new product or service) because it is already worth $1 billion.
