In just 14 days, Nathaneo Johnson and Sean Hargrow, two juniors at Yale University, have funded $3.1 million to start Series.
An AI-powered social network that aims to establish warm, double-opt-in introductions based on mutual value.
Series focuses on fostering genuine, purpose-driven interactions, beginning on college campuses, in contrast to traditional social media platforms that profit from vanity metrics.
The creators are presenting Series as a potent new substitute for Facebook’s strategy.
In a press release, Johnson stated, “We’re 6’5″, Black, and technical—a clear contrast to the Harvard narrative.” “Series tells a new story of how people connect online because of that difference.”
