Create & play AI games with friends

About Pops

Pops lets people play, remix, and share AI games with friends. Discover an infinite feed of games, challenges, quizzes, and other fun interactive experiences made by others. Every play instantly becomes a funny gameplay/reaction video you can send to friends, post online, or use to challenge someone to beat your score. For creators, Pops makes it easier than ever to bring ideas to life and get them played. Instead of learning complex game engines, writing code, or fighting for distribution, anyone can create or remix a playable game in seconds. Bring your ideas, and Pops brings the audience.

    hello everyone Quote alon @alonzuman · May 10 Some personal news: I’ve started a company. It’s called Pops, and I’m excited to share that it’s backed by YC and part of the P26 batch. Pops is what I believe to be the future of entertainment: AI-native, playful, social experiences and games anyone can create, remix, and play
