‘Friend’ CEO spent most of the company’s money buying Friend.com.
As David Pierce wrote about the Friend AI gadget and company CEO Avi Schiffman:
He wants Friend.com to eventually become a social network for real-life and AI friends, and he wants to build more kinds of devices and try everything.
Apparently, he’s serious. 404 Media reports he spent $1.8 million on the domain after raising about $2.5 million. Schiffman said, “People just don’t get consumer, I view this as saving money. Much less money needs to be spent on marketing, it’s a one time thing.”
