Rave

White-label cross-platform social app toolkit

Overview

Rave Social provides an enterprise-grade cross-platform toolkit for mobile app developers to build and manage social features. It lets developers integrate cross-app social graphs and user identity management across iOS, Android, and Unity, while offering a white-label solution that lets publishers keep their brand and user experience. The platform handles large-scale usage (millions of daily active users and hundreds of millions of API requests per day) and is designed to reduce required app updates and shield apps from changes in external platforms. Rave Social targets developers and publishers, helping them create engaging social experiences that drive user lifetime value. The company’s goal is to enable scalable, brand-consistent social ecosystems for top mobile apps and games, backed by a licensing model for its platform.
