Peanut: TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2022

We couldn’t be prouder to be named one of the TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2022 ‒ and we owe it all to you.
The TIME100 Most Influential Companies are chosen each year ‒ this year, the TIME judges focused on five categories: Pioneers, Titans, Leaders, Innovators, and Disruptors.

And Peanut was selected to appear in the Innovators category ‒ right where we belong, and in great company, too!

About Peanut

Since 2017, Peanut has been a haven for women to chat, meet, and make meaningful connections.

In the past four years, we’ve built our community of women and our behind-the-scenes team at Peanut, growing to make a safe, welcoming space for all women.

We must be doing something right, as not only have we been named one of the TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2022, but just last year, we were also selected as one of Apple’s App Store Best of 2021!

We can’t wait to see what else the future holds for Peanut.

How does the TIME100 work?

So just what is the TIME100 Most Influential Companies list all about, and why is it such a big deal?

Well, the TIME100 Most Influential Companies are each nominated from a range of sectors, then judged individually by the TIME editors.

The TIME100 Most Influential Companies for 2022 have been split into five categories: Pioneers, Titans, Leaders, Innovators, and Disruptors.

How is Time 100 Most Influential chosen?

Once the TIME100 editors have compiled their full list of Most Influential Companies nominations, each company is then evaluated on its relevance, impact, innovation, leadership, ambition, and success.
