Shapes App Emerges From Stealth With $8M to Bring AI Characters Into Group Chats

Shapes, a group chat app where AI characters interact alongside humans, has launched with $8M seed funding. Founded in 2022 by Anushk Mittal and Noorie Dhingra, the app has over 400,000 monthly active users and 3 million user-created AI "Shapes." The startup aims to address "AI Psychosis" concerns by integrating AI into communal conversations rather than isolated one-on-one interactions.
