Series develops an AI-powered social network designed to facilitate connections through intelligent introductions. The platform utilizes "AI Friends" to make double opt-in introductions, integrating directly into existing communication channels like iMessage and phone calls. Its core capability lies in leveraging artificial intelligence to streamline social networking and foster new relationships without relying on personal contacts for warm introductions.
The company was co-founded by Nathaneo Johnson and Sean Hargrow, both Yale students, approximately one year prior to its public announcements in 2025. Their founding insight centered on eliminating the friction associated with traditional social networking, specifically the discomfort of requesting introductions from friends. This led to the creation of an AI-assisted system that proactively suggests and mediates connections.
Series targets individuals seeking more deliberate and effective social interactions, offering a novel approach to expanding personal and professional networks. The company envisions itself as an "anti-Facebook," aiming to redefine social connectivity by moving beyond traditional friend networks. It focuses on purpose-driven interactions and facilitating meaningful new relationships through its innovative AI framework.
