Flipboard is a news-reading app that gathers news articles from around the web and organizes them into a curated magazine for its over 145 monthly users based on their interests, encompassing high-quality videos, podcasts, articles, and news in an intuitive format.
The company also has a suite of social features, enabling users to interact with each other and discuss articles with other users. This addition of features is a welcome addition as more people seek alternatives to platforms like Twitter.
The company depends on advertising revenue, a business model that has proven to be challenging. While it provides advertisers with an opportunity to market their products online in a larger magazine format, a vast majority of the world's advertising is still done offline.
Looking forward, Flipboard is focused on continued innovation of its platform and further development of new features.
