Chatty To-Do List App Orchestra Banks $5M From SV Angel And CRV For ?Texting With A Purpose?

o-check-final-onwhite-darkSleek real time chat + to do list app Orchestra is announcing its funding this morning, with a just closed $5 million Series A round from Charles River Ventures and SV Angel, in addition to an earlier $500K in seed funding from Kapor Capital and other angel investors. Orchestra co-founder Gentry Underwood describes the free app as a "texting with a purpose" but also likens it to "a very simple to do list"; "We?ve taken away everything that doesn?t absolutely have to be there." With the co-founders each having done stints IDEO and Apple, its no surprise that Orchestra's interface is remarkably user friendly -- it seamlessly guides you through the tapping, swiping and shaking gestures needed to navigate upon first download. In the same "frictionless" spirit, he app also syncs automatically to http://www.orchestra.com.
