Munch – a leading AI-powered automation platform for social media – recently announced their $7.2 million seed funding round. The funding round was led by A* Capital, supported by Liquid2 and Pre-Seed investors Cardumen Capital and Remagine Ventures.
This funding round will be focused on company growth, increasing its reach into new global markets, and expanding its offering to enterprises. And the funds will be allocated to develop Munch’s solution further, helping content professionals seamlessly create and elevate short-form videos from existing long-form content, increasing ROI.
The increased social media demand has left content professionals with a labor-intensive, costly, and creatively draining process of manually producing content, making it difficult to find a place and engage in popular conversations.
And Munch reduces this burden by leveraging AI to streamline this resource-intensive process with a platform that extracts engaging bite-sized clips from long-form videos primed for social media sharing in minutes.
Munch’s AI-driven platform turns long-form marketing content into engaging and impactful clips for social media usage. And it includes automatic editing, instant and precise subtitle generation, pre-scripted social media posts formulated through advanced AI technology, and caters to a multilingual audience supporting more than 20 languages.
Content can be clipped and adjusted to have the action at the center of the frame no matter what social media platform it will be shared on. And this approach ensures a global reach for businesses looking to amplify the impact of social media strategy.
Munch’s clip-generation engine analyzes video content against the latest social media trends and marketing insights to maximize its viewership. And with Munch, single-purpose videos, such as podcasts, webinars, and livestreams, can be transformed into engaging clips that can go viral.
This content production and distribution approach increases business ROI, minimizes the time-consuming process spent on tedious editing tasks, and allows brands to focus on creative ideation and strategic planning while remaining relevant on social media with consistent, effortless, data-driven content.
Munch has reached over $2 million ARR within 8 months and has over three thousand paying subscribers worldwide. The company has signed contracts with several major, well-renowned media giants as a primary short-form vendor.
