[Vish Kumar 🇬🇧 @vishalkumar]

📸 Happy to finally announce the closure of our $2m seed round to accelerate the launch of our AI-powered assistive camera of the future.

Backed by @betaworks, F4 Fund and @NextWaveNYC via @flybridge, @7pcventures and @DigiCatapult we’re redefining the future of cameras and content creation.

✅ We’re integrating a large language model (LLM) directly into an interchangeable lens mirrorless camera for the first time ever.

✅ We’re entering a new phase in our journey under the name Camera Intelligence (@camera_int) - with a brand that better reflects our direction of travel.

Why does this all matter?

Producing engaging, high-quality content is necessary for creators and small businesses. But content tools are fragmented with steep learning curves.

We want to help creators and businesses go from idea → execution faster than ever: no fuss - just smart, assistive content production in their hands.

We've been working hard behind the scenes to deliver a radical new interface that allows users to control camera functions through voice commands.

Being on the AI native camp at @betaworks in NYC was hugely influential for our ability to develop and deploy our LLM-driven technology - thanks to @Borthwick, @jordanrcrook, @nicole_ripka and the team.

Huge thanks to all of our other investors who believed in our renewed vision Digital Catapult (@SusanBowenUK) and 7percent Ventures (@andrewjscott), and members from the NYC ecosystem (@andruyeung, @thesephist).

🎥 We will be sharing a demo video tomorrow so that you can see what we’re building in action…we can’t wait to share more!

I also can’t wait to tell you about a few incredible team members we're recently hired to realise this vision, and thanks to all of our customers for their patience and support.

We're only getting started...

@jocarrasqueira Nice! That’s The Grove! I grew up next to it :) Beautiful place. Enjoy 🇬🇧

Love that @X is becoming more like Instagram. Tweeted this two weeks ago. Honestly it’ll get so much more traction that way. Yeah there will be some people who will be pissed, but it will be the perfect antidote to anon accounts

[Vish Kumar 🇬🇧 @vishalkumar]

My X account wasn't getting much traction for the last year or so. But now I've figured out what works for me. Basically, I need to post more photos - treat my X like I do my Instagram! It's working... I do build a camera, after all 📸

[Vish Kumar 🇬🇧 @vishalkumar]

@signulll @camera_int Wooo!! 🙌🏽📸

Hey @mattchowx such an interesting read…Thanks a lot for sharing your process in so much detail!

I wanted to flag Caira camera by @camera_int to you. It’s a cinema camera that attaches to your iPhone and has agentic video editing capabilities integrated at the point of capture!

@Madisonkanna Love the production quality of this interview @Madisonkanna. What cameras are you using for this? 🎥
