WhatsApp was co-founded by Jan Koum and Brian Acton in 2009. Both were former employees of Yahoo, and they aimed to create a simple and reliable messaging app that would facilitate communication without the complexities of traditional messaging services. The app quickly gained popularity due to its user-friendly interface and lack of ads. In 2014, Facebook acquired WhatsApp for approximately $19 billion.
