Overview
Jamsocket is a platform for running compute-intensive applications in a browser[1]. Based in New York City[2], the company was founded in 2022 and participated in Y Combinator's Winter 2022 batch[3]. The platform enables developers to deploy browser-based applications with dedicated backends for each user, a system architecture used by applications such as Figma and GitHub Codespaces[5]. According to the company, Jamsocket simplifies this deployment model to the ease of deploying a traditional web server[5]. The company operates with a team of five[4].
We are a platform for high-performance browser-based applications. We make it easier for developers to deploy apps that give every user a dedicated backend. This is a system design that apps like Figma and GitHub codespaces use, but it's currently difficult for others to replicate it. We make it as easy as deploying a traditional web server. [5]
