Heirloom, a San Francisco, CA-based creator of a new platform that transforms photographic prints into digital images and allows people to connect privately over shared memories, raised $1m in seed funding.
Investors include Tencent and a group of angel investors led by Eduardo Vivas.
The company intends to use the funds to build its engineering team and invest in marketing to raise awareness.
Founded in 2014 by Eric Owski and Evan Owski, and also led by Willi Geiger, chief imaging scientist, Heirloom has just released its app, available to download for free on iOS (Apple App Store) and Android (Google Play) which allows users to capture and store images in albums, enjoy them with other users in private, invite-only groups, or share them to more public networks such as Facebook.
