The title makes it sound like they just did a seed round, but the seed round was announced in August of last year [0].

Their website landing page is now also showing the software is no longer maintained. No mention of why they made this decision, my best guess is they burned through their seed money and were unable to attract further investments.

The company was started in January 2024, so the seed financing is likely a roll-up of two years of fundraising. $7m for ~30 months of running an AI startup in NYC is not that unusual.

Burning through $7m in 9 months? That's an impressive amount of avocado toast.

The project was probably just built to raise funds, a bait, and after thats done it's dead.
