Creator Monetisation Platform, ReDesyn raises $500K in pre series A from Fluid Ventures,

Capriglobal, Modular Capital, Anthill Ventures & others. Mumbai-based Creator Monetization Platform ReDesyn will use this capital towards strengthening the core team, expanding its product offering, creator acquisition & building a robust supply-chain.

ReDesyn has raised $500K in a bridge round led by Fluid Ventures and saw participation from

Capri Global, Modulor Capital, LetsVenture, along with existing investors; Anthill Ventures,

Siliconroad VC, Paipal Ventures, & other angels.

ReDesyn is a platform that lets creators, communities and apps launch custom merchandise for

fans at no minimums under their white labeled storefronts. Shikhar Vaidya, Founder at ReDesyn said, “Content creators are constantly looking for ways to monetize their audience. As of 2022, only 150,000 out of 80M content creators in India make money. Content monetization for creators is a $20B untapped opportunity growing every year.

ReDesyn is tapping into this opportunity by building India’s biggest fan merchandise platform

with a vision to enable 1M creators to launch branded merchandise in minutes.”

ReDesyn’s full stack tech platform provides its content creators, a mobile first design tool to

create products in minutes, dedicated storefront, end to end order fulfillment including

logistics, analytics dashboard, marketing tools & NFT capabilities.

Content creators want to convert their built audience of fans into direct paying customers of

their unique products & services. This is a key area where ReDesyn is enabling creators since

they require support of external partners in order to effectively monetize their craft.

Speaking about their core values , Smriti Dubey, Co-founder and CMO @ ReDesyn, said,

"Merchandise should not be exclusive to content creators with millions of followers. Content

creators, no matter how big or small; should not feel ashamed for releasing branded designs

because they don’t reach an unrealistic criteria. Let people have fun!"

Commenting on the investment, Amit Singal, founding partner, Fluid Ventures said, “’Social

media has fuelled the creator economy and has given everyone equal opportunity to become a

celebrity/influencer. ReDesyn is on a path to help independent creators achieve their aspiration

of becoming a global brand. We are very impressed with ReDesyn’s capabilities of creating and

managing the merchandise supply chain via technology for creators and that too with no

minimum order quantity.”

The creator economy is for anyone building a community around their niche. There is an entire

generation of first- time internet users who are now able to build a direct channel to their fans

to sell their unique products and offerings. Individual product creators can now set up online

stores to sell directly to their customers. From an artisan to an independent fashion designer,

fitness experts to entertainers; he/she can now build a direct relationship with consumers.

Bhavish Sood, General Partner at Modulor Capital commented, “Creator DNA to commerce

value chain is fundamentally broken and ReDesyn is in our opinion is one of the few platforms

that solves this problem effectively”

“Consumption patterns of Indians have also evolved. They want to follow people they identify

with, and consume products that showcase their individuality. This has led to a shift in power

from large brands and corporations to individual creators.”- Kalaari report on creator economy

Social platforms have enabled individuals to build a large audience and reach their fans directly.

While they solved for distribution and created breakout stars, very few creators could monetize

effectively. Redesyn believes they will enable effective monetization for the longtail of creators.

Long before Edgar Wright’s The Running Man hits theaters this week, the director of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz had been thinking about making it. He read the original 1982 novel by Stephen King (under his pseudonym Richard Bachman) as a boy and excitedly went to theaters in 1987 to see the film version, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Wright enjoyed the adaptation but was a little let down by just how different it was from the novel. Years later, after he’d become a successful… Source link
