Heart to Heart is raising $ 750,000 to bring sweet, sweet flirting to your ears – TechCrunch
Summary
I think Josh and his team have a new mechanic that feels differentiated and unique, and I think it has the potential to lay the groundwork for a new way of meeting and getting to know each other that is not easy to come by today. In addition, a number of angel investors joined the round, including Chris Bennett (Wonderschool), Andy Weissman (USV) and Gregory Levey (Robinson Huntly). “The most important thing we want to do with the $ 750,000 is to focus on developing our iOS app and making LA our first go-to market,” said Ogundu. “Dating is such a local experience and it makes sense for us to build and improve locally and then scale from there.” “Voice is so willful and intimate, and that’s exactly what we’re building here at Heart to Heart,” says Ogundu, saying that vocal mechanics are helpful in a dating context because they help slow people down. “I think because it takes more energy to send this segment of speech to someone, you will be more focused on who you want to talk to in the first place.” The founding team consists of Joshua Ogundu, who wears the CEO hat.
