Snap builds visual communication software centered on Snapchat, where people exchange photos and videos, chat with friends, and explore creator and publisher content. Stories collect shared moments, while Discover and Spotlight organize video content for viewing beyond private conversations. Lens Studio lets developers create interactive camera effects, and the company develops augmented reality glasses through its wholly owned Specs subsidiary. Snap earns most of its revenue by selling advertising to businesses, alongside paid Snapchat+ subscriptions that add features and personalization to the app. Snap began operations in 2011 and is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.
