๐ธ Happy to finally announce the closure of our $2m seed round to accelerate the launch of our AI-powered assistive camera of the future.
Backed by
@betaworks, F4 Fund and
@NextWaveNYC via
@flybridge,
@7pcventures and
@DigiCatapult weโre redefining the future of cameras and content creation.
โ
Weโre integrating a large language model (LLM) directly into an interchangeable lens mirrorless camera for the first time ever.
โ
Weโre entering a new phase in our journey under the name Camera Intelligence (
@camera_int) - with a brand that better reflects our direction of travel.
Why does this all matter?
Producing engaging, high-quality content is necessary for creators and small businesses. But content tools are fragmented with steep learning curves.
We want to help creators and businesses go from idea โ execution faster than ever: no fuss - just smart, assistive content production in their hands.
We've been working hard behind the scenes to deliver a radical new interface that allows users to control camera functions through voice commands.
Being on the AI native camp at
@betaworks in NYC was hugely influential for our ability to develop and deploy our LLM-driven technology - thanks to
@Borthwick,
@jordanrcrook,
@nicole_ripka and the team.
Huge thanks to all of our other investors who believed in our renewed vision Digital Catapult (
@SusanBowenUK) and 7percent Ventures (
@andrewjscott), and members from the NYC ecosystem (
@andruyeung,
@thesephist).

๐ฅ We will be sharing a demo video tomorrow so that you can see what weโre building in actionโฆwe canโt wait to share more!
I also canโt wait to tell you about a few incredible team members we're recently hired to realise this vision, and thanks to all of our customers for their patience and support.
We're only getting started...
