Who we are

Griz is a product studio building iPhone-first apps at the intersection of social, games, and AI.

We don’t start with decks or buzzwords. We start with behavior. What people actually do when no one’s watching. What they’re afraid to say publicly. What keeps them scrolling, playing, or coming back at 2 a.m.

Our products are experiments with real users, real stakes, and real distribution.

Griz has built and shipped:

  • FlipFlop Campus Connect — a social platform for college students centered on anonymity, authenticity, and network effects

  • Catfish AI — an AI product exploring identity, conversation, and digital personas

  • Ayo — See Where It Goes — a lightweight, game-driven experience designed around curiosity and momentum

We build native iOS products end-to-end — design, engineering, backend, growth, and iteration — with a bias toward speed and signal over perfection. If something works, we double down. If it doesn’t, we kill it fast.

Our edge is range. We’re comfortable shipping:

  • consumer social products with network dynamics

  • casual games with tight feedback loops

  • AI-powered apps that feel human, not robotic

Each app is a data point. Together, they’re a portfolio of validated insights about attention, retention, and human behavior on mobile.

Griz isn’t a feature factory. It’s a launchpad. Some products scale into standalone companies. Others inform the next bet. We’re building leverage through shipping, learning, and compounding distribution.

We believe the next generation of breakout consumer companies won’t come from over-planned roadmaps — they’ll come from teams that can move fast, read users accurately, and adapt in real time.

That’s what Griz is built to do.
