Company Summary

Parlor is the First Social Talking Network. Our vision is to connect people around the world one conversation at a time. Parlor connects people in real-time 1-on-1 private conversations much like you would call a friend. There is no greater connection than two people who want to talk about the same topic at the same time. In today's fast paced world, there is need for more human like interactions and great conversation is the perfect solution.
