Melbourne-based oral hygiene app Pearlii has raised $1.5 million as it embarks on a mission to reach disadvantaged Australians and strengthen its artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
The funding round, which exclusively came from investment firm BRC Capital, comes almost two years after the company closed a $1.25 million raise from Indigenous Capital Limited and Justin Liberman.
Speaking with Business News Australia, Pearlii founder and CEO Dr Kyle Turner explains how the latest raise has “helped complete” the company’s eco-friendly oral care product line, which launched last month and includes toothbrushes, whitening kits and flosses.
