NEWTON, MASS. – TripAdvisor, Inc., announced it has acquired Tiny Post (tinypost.co), the highly acclaimed app that lets you write over photos and turn them into stories. The Tiny Post team will be based in TripAdvisor’s Palo Alto office.
“The Tiny Post team have created a wonderful app that shows the possibilities of combining travel photos with social and mobile,” said Steve Kaufer, co-founder and CEO TripAdvisor, Inc. “We think Tiny Post is a great fit with our continued drive to provide engaging and sharable content and I am happy to welcome this strong team to TripAdvisor.”
Tiny Post was founded as Tiny Review in 2011 by Dick Brouwer and Melissa Miranda. They intended for their app to be used to add text to photos for reviews. But clever app users began creating memes that you can see all over Facebook and elsewhere. The company shifted gears and rebranded as Tiny Post last year.
Terms of the acquisition will not be disclosed.
