An artificial intelligence-based rival to content streaming platform OnlyFans that has signed Baywatch star Carmen Electra has launched after raising £3 million in seed funding.
Adult entertainment startup OhChat, which creates a ‘digital twin’ of celebrities and influencers who collaborate with the site, is valued at more than £16 million following its funding round.
Fans can pay to receive X-rated messages and photos of stars’ AI likenesses.
The company said it signed up 75,000 users in 174 countries in the first few weeks.
Pull: Users can interact with digital twins of celebrities, including Baywatch star Carmen Electra
Founders Nic Young and Felix Henderson said the London-based company is an ethical alternative to sites like OnlyFans because real people are not involved in creating adult content.
In addition to digital twins, OhChat will feature fully AI-generated characters.
Investors in the funding round included Tangent Ventures, Big Brain Holdings, Kosmos Ventures and Tagus Capital.
OhChat is expected to turn a profit in its second year.
