AI-driven marketing startup funding

Overview

New York-based Melius raised $25 million in total funding, including a $20 million Series A and a $5 million seed round, to support its AI-driven creative advertising platform. The company pivoted from a performance marketing tool to an “agents lab for creative work” that generates advertising assets.

Following this, San Francisco-based startup Different emerged from stealth mode after securing a $48 million seed round led by General Catalyst. Different focuses on automating end-to-end B2B demand generation through an AI system that manages campaign orchestration, including planning, advertising, and email.
