Wildfire was acquired by Opendoor in 2021. It built a social news app for colleges. It sent 65 million alerts to nearly 1 million users over 6 years. It ranked Top 5 in the “News Category,” right below Twitter, Reddit, and Nextdoor, and above CNN and The New York Times. It was selected for Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2020. Wildfire raised $3.1 million from Accel, Khosla, Y Combinator (S17), Greylock, Redpoint, The House Fund, Kindred Ventures, Abstract, and Paul Buchheit. I started Wildfire during my senior year at UC Berkeley with the mission of helping keep communities safer and more informed with real-time safety alerts. Wildfire quickly grew beyond a campus safety tool to a social news app, which empowered people to spread the word quickly to their community when something significant happened nearby.
