What Company Is Offering:
Virsona is a social media service that allows users to create online virtual personas that "come to life" via realistic, real-time chats. Through these life-like Virsonas, users are able to build relationships between people, characters and brands. The company's innovative, patent-pending artificial intelligence technology enables the Virsonas to "come to life" by giving them the ability to reason, remember and react just like the person or character they were designed to emulate. Users interact with Virsonas at the company's destination site, virsona.com, or with embedded Virsonas integrated in affiliate sites whose content is strictly regulated by the company or brand.

How Much They Got From VCs:
