Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Bunch operates a mobile social app that combines group voice and video chat with instant multiplayer games. Users create an avatar, customise a virtual "home," and invite friends in to talk and play together. Alongside built-in instant games, the app supports watching YouTube videos together and launching third-party titles such as Roblox and Minecraft within a shared session.

Beyond the private-room experience, the app includes broader shared spaces described as the "Bunch World," including a public area ("Bunch Town") where users can meet others, and casual multiplayer experiences such as Hot Potato. Retention features include notifications when friends enter a user's home and persistent group chat between sessions.

Business model

Bunch distributes consumer mobile apps through app storefronts, publishing multiple game titles under a single developer account alongside its core social chat and games app.
