If I recall correctly, Slack was built utilizing IRC on the backend.
I remember that resonating with me as I was sole developer on an in-house invoicing system at a Fortune 500, and I added a whole corporate chat functionality using IRC libs. It only took a few days to implement. It made me aware how easy it can be to build a billion dollar business by mistake. Too bad not my billion dollar business!
