Video Conversation Apps

This Creative New Startup Helps Video Conversations Suit Your Schedule

— October 17, 2014 — Tech
DIVE Communications is a creative new startup that is putting forward the DIVE app, which is like a cross between Skype, Snapchat and a social network. Essentially, the app allows you to record a video conversation with someone, without having to be using the app at the same time as another user. This way, DIVE makes it easy to host questions and answer sessions, as well as screen potential job candidates, blind dates, or connect with friends and family no matter how close or far away they are.

As the CEO and co-founder of DIVE Communications, Chelsea O'Connor is bringing her vision for the future of communication to life. O'Connor describes that "I see DIVE as a second nature tool for people, permeating the visual communication landscape in both social and enterprise and serving as a leader in alternative mobile communication systems." As a startup, DIVE Communications is looking for partners to make this vision become a reality.
