Some former Twitter engineers have managed to raise $1.35 million in funding for their new San Francisco-based startup called Pushd. Not much is known about the startup except that it’s working on an application called Sense. What Sense does and what the company’s goals are remain unknown.

Pushd, a secretive startup led by former Twitter chief scientist Abdur Chowdhury, has raised $1.04 million in new funding, according to a a document the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission released today. The new funding, which Pushd disclosed to the SEC on Monday, comes almost a year-and-a-half after Pushd raised $1.35 million. San Francisco-based Pushd has not identified its investors.
