Amino Apps is a mobile-only platform for passionate niche communities.
The background & The different types of Aminos
Amino was created by CEO Benjamin Anderson, who was an average guy with a love for technology and Co - CEO Yin Wang with the same passion. They first met on May 22, 2010 at the Hynes convention center in Boston. This is where they came up with the idea for the Amino apps. The two young minds stumbled upon Anime Boston and noticed how complete strangers were instantly able to become friends because they shared the same interest, Anime. With Anderson's knowledge of business and Wang's knowledge of computers these two set out to make a mobile app recreate that experience.
The first three apps released were Pets Amino on December 21st, 2011, Virtual space Amino on March 7th, 2012 and Anime Amino only 8 days later on March 13th, 2013.
Those are the three that started off the company. Now there are over 40 Amino and more coming out Monthly!

How does Amino help people, how does it make people’s lives better?
Amino focuses on including all types of people, no matter their interests, careers, cultures. Amino brings people together, to help them share stories, art and more. Because of the anonymous aspect cyber bullying is at a minimum and instead of people arguing and bringing each other down they tend to bond over the select topic. Because of the different apps generally it’s only used by the people who enjoy that topic.
