Gökçe Nur Oğuz and Onur Olgun

Boby.ai, which develops artificial intelligence-supported mobile applications for end users, received a seed investment of $1.25 million in an investment round led by London Venture Partners, one of the world's most respected investment funds in the gaming sector and based in London. Diffusion Capital Partners and F4 Fund also participated in the round.

Founded by Gökçe Nur Oğuz (CEO), Onur Olgun (COO) and Berat Oğuz, Boby.ai develops user-friendly and creative artificial intelligence applications on mobile platforms and delivers them directly to the end user.

Gökçe Nur Oğuz, co-founder and CEO of Boby.ai, previously led two successful startups in the gaming industry, Playable Factory and Fabrika Games. Having developed games that reached millions of users with these startups, Oğuz now transfers her experience in product development, growth and globalization in the gaming industry to AI-based mobile applications with Boby.ai.

Boby.ai CEO Gökçe Nur Oğuz made the following statement regarding the investment:

“Everything we have learned over the years in the gaming industry—how to develop products quickly, how to scale, what works and what doesn’t—we are now bringing to AI-based mobile applications. Our goal is very clear: to develop applications that people actually use, benefit from, and enjoy. This investment is not just a financial boost for us, it is also a strong indication that we are on the right track.”

The startup’s flagship product, Mozart.ai, allows users to create personalized music with the help of artificial intelligence. The app has been downloaded more than 2.5 million times to date.

“When talent, technology and timing come together, great things happen”

London Venture Partners founding partner David Gardner, who led the investment round , said in his statement about the investment:

“We are excited to partner with the Boby AI team in this new era. At LVP, we believe that great companies are born at the intersection of talent, technology, and timing; Boby AI is a perfect example of this. The team has a strong background in game development. They have previously built projects that have reached millions of users worldwide. They are now bringing this experience to the rapidly growing space of user-friendly AI applications on mobile. This space is still in its early stages, but we believe it will play a central role in the intuitive and seamless integration of AI into people’s daily lives. We believe Boby AI will lead the transformation in this space.”

“Mobile will be the main way to access AI”

Diffusion Capital Partners investment director Merve Akgün, who participated in the investment, said:

“With this investment in Boby.ai, we aim to contribute to the widespread use of artificial intelligence technologies on mobile platforms. As the importance of users’ direct access to AI solutions increases, Boby.ai’s experienced team and innovative approach meet this need. We believe that mobile applications will be one of the most critical methods for consumers to access and use artificial intelligence. Boby.ai’s expertise and proven success in this field will make significant contributions to the widespread use of artificial intelligence technologies.”

“They are developing new generation applications that bring artificial intelligence together with humans”

Joakim Achrén, founder of F4 Fund, another fund participating in the investment, made the following statements:

“We are delighted to invest in Gökçe Oğuz and his team. The team has a very strong sense of how to develop next-generation applications that blend the latest AI technologies with a genuine human connection for the end user. As the mobile app landscape continues to evolve, we believe Boby AI will be at the forefront of applications that will redefine the way users interact with AI.”
