Founder story
Popl was founded in 2019 in Los Angeles by Jason Alvarez-Cohen and Nick Eischens. Originally creating an NFC-enabled device to instantly swap social profiles and phone numbers, the team went viral on TikTok and was accepted into Y Combinator in 2021. Recognizing strong corporate demand, they evolved Popl into an enterprise SaaS platform for digital business cards and AI event lead capture.
