Former Google engineer David Petrou launched Continua, an AI-powered startup enhancing group chat collaboration. Continua uses LLMs to help organize group chats across platforms like SMS, iMessage, and Discord, managing tasks, setting reminders, and offering information on demand. The company recently secured an $8 million seed round led by GV, with participation from Bessemer Ventures Partners and angel investors. Continua's unique approach focuses on integrating AI agents seamlessly into group dynamics, addressing the complexities of multi-person conversations.
