Entefy is leveraging technology in new ways to better manage and intelligently thread conversations across a variety of popular protocols. Imagine all your conversations organized around the people you want to connect with and what you want to say, not scattered across multiple communication and social apps.

Having met this funding milestone, the duo looks forward to continuing development of an awesome product, expanding the team, and preparing for launch.
