What's next for Miles?
The recent major strategic investment of $12.5M in July 2021 indicated a phase of scaling and potential expansion for Miles. However, the subsequent announcement of the app's shutdown suggests a pivot or a strategic decision to cease operations in its current form. While the exact reasons for the shutdown are not detailed, the company's statement about future endeavors implies that the learnings and intellectual property developed during its nearly nine-year run might be leveraged in new ventures. The enterprise-level funding context suggests that the company was aiming for significant market penetration or development before this decision.
