General Catalyst leads $1.1B round into 2-month-old River AI

# River AI Lands $1.1B to Build Personal AI Assistants A new startup called River AI just raised over a billion dollars to create AI assistants that work for individual people—think of them as digital helpers that understand what you need and handle tasks on your behalf. The company is so early (only two months old) and the founders' track record is so strong that major investors bet huge money on the idea before the product was even finished. This signals that the tech industry believes personal AI assistants are the next big thing worth funding heavily.
