News of the Day

Wabi, the latest venture from Replika founder Eugenia Kuyda, has raised $20 million in pre-seed funding from an all-star roster including Naval Ravikant, Garry Tan, Justin Kan, and Sarah Guo, to build what Kuyda calls “YouTube for apps.” The platform lets users instantly create and share mini apps using simple prompts—no coding required—ushering in an era where personalized, disposable software becomes as common as posting a TikTok. Backed by investors like Andreessen Horowitz’s Anish Acharya, who calls Kuyda a rare founder with a track record for predicting consumer behavior, Wabi blends creation, hosting, and discovery into one social experience—users can remix, like, and follow apps just as they would creators. Early buzz on X has been electric, with designers and developers raving about how effortlessly they can build and deploy apps like AI therapists or daily news bots. While the product is still ironing out early kinks, Kuyda’s vision is clear: democratize software creation for a new generation and do it without ads or dark patterns. As Acharya puts it, Wabi could spark the next evolution in digital creativity—one where making an app is as easy as sharing a meme, and “software becomes the final frontier of participation.”
