Hey guys, I'm the Founder and CEO of Laugh.ly. I started the company because I love comedy but didn't have a good way to listen to comedy while I was commuting or road-tripping. I tried to listen to comedy on my beloved Spotify and Pandora subscriptions, but those apps are really just designed for music so I couldn't dig as deep as I wanted. I tried to listen to comedy on my Sirius XM description, but I didn't have control over what I listened to. Thusly, Laugh.ly was born. We offer access to thousands of albums from hundreds of comedians. You can search by comedian, by album name or just topic. Listening is totally free and our ad-free subscription is also an option. I look forward to all of you giving this a try and telling me what you think!
Shouldn't this be a "standup bot" instead of an app? I crack myself up. Lol.
Maker
Pretty good idea for a bot actually, maybe some part of our onboarding can be a bot to easily get an idea of your comedy style. Or how loud you laugh to certain jokes that helps us curate recommendations? Endless possibilities.
Maker
We are working on the sex, err I mean, stand-up as we speak. This is deep in our bed-, I mean, research facilities.
Really great app that has had me laughing since the beta. Highly recommend.
Maker
Thanks! We have big plans, so if you have ideas as the product evolves, you can send them to or ping us on Twitter :)
Can comedians submit work or apply to be searchable and/or featured on Laugh.ly?
Maker
Hi Evelyn, yes in the next few months, we will offer a self-publishing model to allow budding comedians (like myself) to publish right into our system. The beauty of a service like this is that anyone can have a joke right alongside Kevin Hart or Louis CK.
I heard about this app at TechCrunch Disrupt and have been excited to try it out ever since. They did not disappoint!!!
Maker
Thanks Corey. Put that into your app review! Hahaha.
Maker
Hahaha. I would hope so. We have thousands of hours of comedy. Any comedian you want and they're on there. But please don't topple the car offer like this little dude.
25M! Why not a webapp?
Maker
The webapp is coming. I promise!
Awesome, hope it shall be a progressivewebapp ;)
This is an awesome idea. I've had this pain point before trying to find stand up comedy. Generally, you just end up going to people you know on YouTube or Spotify which is just limiting for discovery.
Maker
Yeah, I know how you feel. What's cool about our app is you will definitely discover similar artists as you explore our 400 comedians. Do download the app and check it out for yourself.
