Founder, Withly LLC
Dr. Mohammad Mohebbi is a tenured Computer Science professor and the Founding Director of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Lab at the University of North Georgia (UNG). His work bridges academic research and practical software engineering, with a focus on machine learning and bioinformatics.
As a professor, he saw firsthand how lonely campus life can be for many students, even when they are surrounded by thousands of classmates. To help solve this real problem, he founded Withly LLC and built Withly, an app where verified college students meet a small circle of new people every night at 8pm and keep the friends they click with.
Withly LLC builds and operates the Withly app for iPhone and Android and the website withly.co. The company is currently run by its founder. For partnerships, press or support, email mohebbi@withly.co.
Withly LLC is an independent company and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the University of North Georgia. Academic titles are listed to identify the founder's background.
