Gagbot

399 Fremont Street, San Francisco, California, United States

Overview

GagBot builds an AI meme-generator that uses object recognition and semantic analysis to automatically generate original captions based on the content of user photos. Users upload a photo and the AI suggests clever, context-aware quotes to turn images into unique memes. Prisma has integrated GagBot’s tool into its photo-editing app as part of a broader push to add AI-powered features for users. The startup recently raised a $500,000 funding round led by AltaIR Capital with participation from angel investors. The founding team includes Ivan Novikov (AI expert), Viktor Mangazeev (uTrener CEO) and Anastasia Shvetsova (PR professional); AltaIR highlighted the product’s combination of AI and imaging technology. Prisma’s shift toward B2B tools and its Prismalabs.ai offering frames GagBot as a complementary service to enhance user communication via AI.
