Noise Secures $5.5 Million Seed Funding to Empower Everyday Content Creators

Noise, a marketing platform designed to link brands with content creators, recently announced a successful seed funding round, raising $5.5 million. This investment brings the company's total capital raised to $7.2 million. The platform enables everyday individuals to become paid content creators, offering brands a cost-effective alternative to traditional influencer marketing.

The company also unveiled its new Organic-to-Ads programme, which allows brands to utilise content created by Noise users for paid advertising campaigns on platforms such as Meta and TikTok, in addition to the creators' organic posts.

Noise secured $5.5 million in its latest seed funding round, contributing to a cumulative raise of $7.2 million. The platform currently boasts a network of 1.5 million creators. According to the company, its most successful creators are earning over six figures annually.

Noise was established in 2025 by co-founders Diego Kafie, Stu Feldt, and Nic Weber, following their previous venture, a mobile game app called Playbite. Diego Kafie serves as the company's CEO. The recent seed round was jointly led by Capital Midwest, M25, and Grishin Robotics, with additional investment from Capitalize VC and various operators from companies including DoorDash.

Noise addresses the expanding influencer market by democratising content creation, enabling a wider demographic to participate and earn income. The platform provides brands, particularly those with startup budgets, with an efficient and scalable method to engage a broad audience through a diverse range of content creators, significantly reducing marketing costs compared to traditional strategies. This approach offers an accessible entry point for individuals aspiring to become content creators without the typical barriers of building a large following.

The newly acquired capital will be allocated towards enhancing Noise's product capabilities and expanding its team. The recently launched Organic-to-Ads programme presents a new avenue for brands to amplify their reach by leveraging creator-generated content in paid advertising, alongside organic social media posts. The company aims to broaden its client base beyond mobile apps and startup budgets to include businesses of all sizes.
