Clique

Clique operates as a community-focused platform, providing tools for groups to connect, organize, and expand both online and in person. Founded in 2021 and based in Sugar Land, United States, the company targets community leaders and individuals seeking to join groups with similar interests. The business model centers on providing a unified application that integrates group chat, event creation, and payment processing, aiming to simplify community management.

The platform, which is owned by Social Science Inc., enables community organizers to reduce administrative tasks and focus more on member engagement. For members, Clique serves as a discovery tool to find and join various 'Cliques' based on their interests and location, gaining access to exclusive events, discussions, and activities. The service facilitates connections between communities and brands, creating sponsorship opportunities that can provide value to both the members and the organizers.

The application's core function is to act as a centralized hub for community activities. This includes features for planning and participating in real-life events, which are designed to foster authentic connections among members who share common passions. By combining communication tools with event management and monetization features, Clique aims to provide a comprehensive solution for building and sustaining active communities.
