Vhoto Raises $2.4M in Seed Funding

vhotoVhoto, a developer of photo capturing technology, raised a $2.4m seed funding.

Backers included Atlas Venture, Polaris Partners and Hugh Crean.

Led by Noah Heller, CEO, and Jay Bartot, CTO, Vhoto provides a free app that allows users to take a video and then scans each frame in the video and chooses the best photos for users to save and share on social networks like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, or with the Vhoto community.
The technology – based on video – evaluates over 20 dimensions, including blur, contrast, faces, smiles, novelty, and user intent, and eliminates the need for users to frame and pose shots, making it ideal for selfies, action shots, candids, children, pets and group pictures, usually difficult to capture in a single photo.
