Clubhouse.

Instagram to Create Marketplace to Connect Brands With Influencers

"By giving people the option to mute their audio or turn off their video, hosts will have added flexibility for their Livestream experience, as the added functionality could help decrease pressure to look or sound a certain way while broadcasting live," Instagram said in a statement emailed to Mashable.

Live, the company added, gives creators a "quick, low-lift way to connect with their community and audience and have a real back-and-forth conversation."

Mashable reported that the company is not the first to follow in Clubhouse's audio-forward footsteps. Clubhouse, an audio-based social media app that allows a to jump in and out of chats on a variety of topics, does it the same. It is like tuning in to a live podcast recording.
