PHILADELPHIA, PA — Spinnr and Vengo AI are set to redefine the landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and social networking. This innovative partnership aims to augment digital companionship and disrupt the traditional models of social interaction through a shared creator economy model.
Spinnr, known for its AI-powered platform that fosters authentic friendships via personalized video interactions, is on a mission to combat loneliness. The company’s advanced AI algorithms connect users with shared interests, offering a richer and more meaningful social experience. “Our mission has always been about more than just making connections; it’s about building genuine friendships and ending loneliness around the world,” says Jason Sherman, CEO of Spinnr.
On the other side of this strategic alliance is Vengo AI, which brings to the table its advanced digital companionship platform. Equipped with extensive language models, natural language processing capabilities, and proprietary datasets, Vengo AI creates AI personas that offer emotional support and a sense of belonging to its users. “Vengo AI is not just artificial intelligence; it’s a friend, mentor, and companion rolled into one,” states Kristin LaSalle, CMO of Spinnr.
This collaboration comes as a response to the growing “Loneliness Epidemic” identified by the U.S. Surgeon General. According to Mental Health America, 55% of adults with a mental illness received no treatment in 2022. Furthermore, a recent Meta-Gallup survey in 2023 found that more than 26% of adults worldwide reported feeling lonely.
The partnership introduces a shared creator economy model, allowing creators and members to develop and monetize personalized AI companions. This model democratizes the creation of AI personas, making technology accessible to all without the need for coding skills. It also incentivizes creativity by allowing users to earn revenue from their AI personas. “By empowering members to create and earn revenue from their own AI personas, they’re unlocking a world of possibilities,” adds Tim Lemmon, Advisor to Spinnr and former COO of AOL, Yahoo, and Verizon Media.
This innovative approach to digital companionship is set to make waves in the AI industry, challenging the traditional models of social networking. The platforms are perfectly positioned within a combined market value of $250 billion, encompassing the social and AI sectors. With an increasing demand for personalized digital experiences, Spinnr and Vengo AI are leading a significant shift in how people connect online.
The potential of this partnership has not gone unnoticed. Spinnr has been awarded $150,000 in growth credits through the Microsoft Startup Founder Program. It has also received grants from OpenAI, Stripe, and ElevenLabs, marking its growing prominence in the tech sector.
As Spinnr and Vengo AI chart a new course in AI-driven social networking, they are poised to address the loneliness epidemic, offering a new dimension of companionship and connection in the digital age.
