Yale Students Build Series: The AI Network Challenging LinkedIn

Two Yale juniors raised $3.1 million in 14 days to build Series, an AI-powered networking platform challenging LinkedIn.

Nathaneo Johnson and Sean Hargrow are creating what they call the "anti-Facebook"—a social network that uses AI to facilitate meaningful professional connections instead of collecting followers.

Backed by Reddit's CEO and former Andreessen Horowitz investors, Series limits introductions to prioritize quality over quantity.

We explore how these 21-year-old founders are reimagining social networking for Gen Z, the technical challenges of AI-powered matchmaking, and whether their collaboration-first approach can scale beyond elite college campuses.

This is the story of two Black founders breaking barriers in tech while still finishing their degrees.
