Discord is a communications platform designed for building communities through voice, video, and text chat. Founded in 2015 by Jason Citron and Stan Vishnevskiy, the company initially focused on providing gamers with a better way to communicate during gameplay. Over time, Discord evolved into a broader social platform used by a wide range of communities—including creators, students, hobby groups, and professional teams—to host conversations, events, and collaborative spaces known as servers.
Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Discord has grown to serve hundreds of millions of registered users worldwide and employs over a thousand people. The platform is widely recognized for its low‑latency voice technology, customizable community servers, and developer ecosystem that includes bots and integrations. Discord’s mission is to create a place where people can belong and build meaningful communities online. The company remains privately held and has expanded its offerings with premium subscriptions (Discord Nitro), improved safety tools, and features supporting creators and large-scale communities.
