I’m excited to announce that vybe has raised $4.75M from Stellation Capital, Scribble Ventures, Neo, Coalition Operators and Stellar Capital. Imagine a world where anyone has access to Beyonce’s photographer on demand in their pocket? vybe - the ai camera makes it one-click. Photos have always been the dominant format of self-expression throughout history. From cave paintings & Kodak analog cameras to filtered mobile photos on Instagram & Snapchat, people have wanted to capture reality & imagination into a visual canvas. Photos have since evolved into a cornerstone for community building and human connection. With the advent of AI, this moment in history presents a new inflection point in the story of photography. It introduces a new era where every story featuring you and your friends is captured with the cinematic quality of a James Cameron film. Your imagination is the only limit for you and your friends. This vision has deeply resonated with our predominantly Gen-Z community, who have consistently used vybe as their personal photographer for months. Their valuable feedback has been instrumental in refining and perfecting the core experience, leading to the product you see today. Our community has created millions of images, demonstrating the immense potential of AI-powered visual storytelling. -- Thank you – This wouldn’t be possible without our amazing investors who have supported us when vybe was just an idea.
