Core AI Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:CHAI) on Thursday launched HomeGPT, an AI-powered home design and renovation app that allows users to generate and modify home designs from a single photo.

Financing Announcement Weighs On Stock

The launch comes a day after Core AI announced a $5.4 million registered direct offering. Investors reacted negatively to the dilutive share sale, sending the stock lower after a sharp rally in the previous session.

The financing involves the sale of 1.97 million common shares and 3.98 million pre-funded warrants to an institutional investor, with proceeds earmarked for AI technology development, infrastructure initiatives and working capital.

Core AI said HomeGPT’s active user base grew from about 2,000 to more than 130,000 during a three-month beta period across North America, Japan and South Korea. Users completed more than 380,000 AI design tasks, while paid conversion rose about 210% from earlier product versions.
