About PieSocket
Meet the people behind PieSocket making realtime technology less complex.
Our Story
The journey so far.
PieSocket was first launched as WebSocket.in in October, 2018. Anand wanted to build a web based video-player to watch movies with his friends. The idea was, the movie pauses when any of the members paused the video, and played when any of them hit the play button so everyone can watch in sync.
WebSocket was built to support the web-based video player, Anand made the underlying WebSocket service public on websocket.in. It was free for a year and developers began to use the service to build their own realtime applications.
We talked to the users and they told us they would love to pay for a paid version of the WebSocket Server API if it offered more features.
In 2020, we finally launched a paid version of WebSocket.in rebranded as PieSocket.
We have since then launched Portals, served 100+ startups, small/medium companies, individual builders and tech giants such as RedHat, Akamai and Ingenico to name a few.
PieSocket is currently bootstrapped and Anand (Founder) is our sole investor.
