About

Founded in 2012 and acquired by MediaLab AI in 2021, Amino grew to 13 million app downloads by 2016 before eventually shutting down in December 2025. The platform was distinguished by its community-first architecture, enabling users to create and moderate their own topic-specific spaces on mobile.
