Showtime: World’s first personalized human video platform Gan.ai raises $5.25M helping brands drop tailored video campaigns

Gan.ai

Brands have been able to personalize text, images and audio in their marketing campaigns for years and with the onset of AI resources, this has helped them scale their work. Today, Generative AI video platform Gan.ai is announcing a $5.25M seed funding round as they breach the final frontier of personalizing video for mass marketing campaigns. The funding round was led by Surge, Sequoia Capital India and Southeast Asia’s rapid scale-up program with participation from Emergent Ventures and other angel investors. With Gan.ai’s studio-quality video personalization software, brands simply need to record a video once, add dynamic keywords to a script, and Gan.ai will generate millions of hyper-customized videos in one click. Businesses can also create personalized landing pages with Gan.ai and deliver videos via preferred communications platforms, enabling specific interactions with users and tailored call-to-actions. The platform integrates with Shopify, Calendly, Stripe, Salesforce and Hubspot for businesses to create unique shopping and payment experiences also. Moreover, Gan.ai’s end-to-end solution also provides businesses with granular customer insights and video performance analytics. Gan.ai was founded in March 2021 by Suvrat Bhooshan and is headquartered in California, US. Suvrat previously worked at Facebook AI Research (FAIR) having completed his masters degree in computer science from Stanford University. His deep-learning papers have been published and cited over 300 times. Today, they are a team of 35 with a leadership team that includes Anupreet Singh as Chief Revenue Officer and Kushaagra Goyal as Chief Technology Officer. Anupreet Singh was US and Europe lead at Mettl (acquired by Mercer) and scaled up business from zero. Most recently, he was the GTM leader at Slintel (acquired by 6sense), where he achieved 0-$5M ARR in just two years. Kushaagra Goyal, leads the development of their disruptive generative AI technology. He has five years of experience working at Databricks, Rubrik and Samsung. He has published over ten patents in this field. Gan.ai is solving a pressing need for businesses as video becomes the go-to means in engaging users. The amount of online video people are watching has almost doubled since 2018, and an overwhelming 86% of businesses use video as a marketing tool. However, creating videos can often be a time-consuming process which lacks personalization when it comes to targeting a large audience. Suvrat Bhooshan, Founder and CEO of Gan.ai commented: “We’re empowering marketing teams around the world to generate a higher return on investment for video campaigns. Imagine a food delivery company being able to send a personalized video from a brand ambassador, addressing its customer by name and how they enjoyed items in their last order, or a clinic reminding a patient to book a follow-up appointment. This hyper-personalization leads to much higher conversion rates vs other static forms of communications. With Gan.ai, businesses will be able to scale their video personalization process while seamlessly integrating it with existing workflows. We’re excited to grow our operations with the new funds, and expand our sales and engineering teams across US and India,” he said. Gan.ai boasts a global customer base that includes brands such as Samsung, Zomato, vivo and gaming platform Mobile Premier League. In the US, Gan.ai has been used by some of the biggest brands including the largest chain of optometry and ophthalmology clinics, EyeCare Partners. “We record videos with influencers and celebrities, and now with Gan.ai, when they call out your name and tell you to take a personalized call-to-action the results are astounding. We saw a 5x increase in our Video Completion Rate, 3x increase in open rates, and 1.5x increase in our Click-Through-Rate," said user Tejnoor Grover at gaming platform Mobile Premier League. At TechCrunch Disrupt 2022, Gan.ai was one of the 200 technologies of the future. They have also been inducted into Stanford University’s prestigious StartX cohort in 2023. About Gan.ai Gan.ai is on a mission to democratize personalized video creation by allowing brands to customize videos for their customers using AI. Gan.ai helps organizations enhance the video creation process and reach out to their audience effectively by making personalized landing pages for customers and delivering customized videos via preferred communication platforms. It empowers organizations to generate a higher return on investment (ROI) for campaigns. For more information on Gan.ai, visit https://gan.ai/ or follow the team on LinkedIn.

Shareholder to Address Censorship Policies at Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta

National Legal & Policy Center

Following the exposure by the “Twitter Files” reports that revealed the extent to which malicious government agencies colluded with Big Tech to censor content, a shareholder in three Silicon Valley corporations will present proposals in the coming weeks to address their suppression of speech. National Legal and Policy Center – which owns stock in Amazon, Alphabet (parent of Google and YouTube) and Meta (parent of Facebook) – will sponsor proposals at each company that request transparency about requests they have received from U.S. government officials to “take down” content from their platforms. Amazon’s annual meeting is on Wednesday, May 24; Meta’s is on May 31, and Alphabet’s is on June 2. “As we’ve learned since Elon Musk took over Twitter, there is an epidemic of unconstitutional government censorship of speech in our country, and Big Tech has welcomed the opportunities to be their enforcers,” said Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project, who will present the proposals at the companies’ respective meetings. “It is vital, as public companies, that Alphabet, Amazon and Meta act in the country’s interest and disclose who in the federal government is making these improper – and most of them probably illegal – requests, and divulge what they have asked to be removed from their platforms.” The Amazon and Meta proposals seek an itemization of the requests the companies have received from federal government. The Alphabet proposal asks for a report about the extent its censorship policies and practices have on the fiduciary health of the company. The text of NLPC’s proposal for a “Risk Audit on Content Censorship” for Alphabet’s 2023 annual meeting follows: RESOLVED: Shareholders request that Alphabet Inc. (“Company”) issue a report at reasonable cost – omitting proprietary or legally privileged information – reviewing the vulnerabilities of its enforcement of Google’s and YouTube’s Terms of Service related to content policies, and assessing the risks posed by content management controversies related to issues such as election interference, freedom of expression, and inequitable application of policies, and how they affect the Company’s finances, operations, and reputation. SUPPORTING STATEMENT: Evidence has accumulated over many years that show Alphabet Inc.’s platforms discriminate against disfavored speech, interfered in elections, and is undeniably prejudiced. Major examples include: In leaked Company emails, employees discussed using “ephemeral experiences” to change users’ views. Back in 2016, the Company’s chief financial officer said, “we will use the great strength and resources and reach we have” to advance Google’s values. Consequentially, senior research psychologist Dr. Robert Epstein found that – based on 1.5 million search experiences his team aggregated in 2020 – that the Company’s manipulations could have shifted up to six million votes to Joe Biden. A study of voter outreach by 2020 political candidates, conducted by North Carolina State University’s Department of Computer Science, found that Google’s Gmail “marked 59.3% more emails from [conservative] candidates as spam compared to the [progressive] candidates.” The Republican National Committee claimed that Gmail sent more than 22 million of its emails to spam during a critical fundraising period in the 2022 election cycle. The Company has incurred a lawsuit and a complaint to the Federal Elections Commission due to the alleged suppression. A Media Research Center analysis of the most tightly contested 2022 U.S. Senate races found that ten of 12 Republican candidates’ campaign websites (83%) appeared far lower (or did not appear at all) on page one of Google’s organic search results, compared to their Senate Democratic Party opponents’ campaign websites. In addition to the above examples, the Company is the target of a credible, major lawsuit by the states of Missouri and Louisiana, based on extensive evidence that the Company violated users’ First Amendment rights. Shareholders need to know whether the Company is engaged in unconstitutional censorship, and whether the Company exercises its content moderation in violation of its Terms of Service, opening the Company to liability claims by victims. Shareholders also need to know whether the Company is failing to disclose these potential liabilities as material risks in its public filings. There is currently no single source providing shareholders the information sought by this resolution. Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.

Singaporean Telehealth Platform ORA Raises $10 Million Series A to Modernise Healthcare in the Region

ORA

Singaporean telehealth platform ORA has raised a $10 million USD Series A funding. This is the largest telehealth Series A in South-East Asia and was co-led by TNB Aura and Antler with participation from Gobi Partners, Kairous Capital and GMA Ventures, bringing total funding to date above $17 million USD. ORA is the fastest-growing and biggest vertically-integrated telehealth platform in South East Asia delivering over 250,000 consultations and has experienced uninterrupted monthly growth since its 2021 launch. ORA has launched three brands that serve the modern patient living with chronic conditions, making treatment more accessible, convenient and personal. Modules is a first to market online dermatology experience making personalised, prescription skincare accessible with 676 different formulations, andSons offers male health solutions and OVA delivers female reproductive healthcare. Founded by former ZALORA CMO Elias Pour, ORA is uniquely positioned with a diverse, proven leadership team with rich backgrounds across health, tech and consumer brands. Backed by a robust medical advisory board, ORA’s R&D team draws on experience from L’Oréal and Sephora creating high-touch products and experiences that are IP’d and 100% in-house developed. With a strong attention to customer experience, first to market solutions like Modules, andSons and Ova are meeting modern customer expectations head on. These interactions are translating into deeper patient relationships, building retention rates only rivalled by subscription models like Netflix and unrivalled within the industry. 90% of ORA’s patients are first to condition, under 38 years old and have never been treated before. The disconnect between this younger patient population and the traditional healthcare model is ORA’s biggest opportunity. These new patients have a different set of demands such as flexibility and speed which ORA’s telemedicine model is perfectly placed to treat. ORA’s seamless end-to-end experience joins up the fragmented traditional model, linking consultation, education, pharmacy, delivery and post purchase care for unparalleled convenience. “ORA is on a mission to deliver high touch, high-quality care to millions of patients and with our continued growth story throughout SEA, we are thrilled with today's announcement.” said Elias Pour, ORA’s founder and CEO. “ORA has had over 6 million patient touch points provide us with valuable health data through extensive health evaluations and consultation online. This has brought unique insights into these patient’s healthcare expectations that has and will inform future innovations with our key partners.” “We have the high growth potential of DTC, with a very high percentage of healthcare expenditure in our region being out of pocket. This is powered by an underlying SAAS type of recurring revenue, with subscriptions counting for more than 70% of our revenue and our retention is better than Netflix with 10x the monthly order value. We achieved post marketing breakeven at the end of last year on a group level after just 20 months of going live and have a very clear and believable path to profitability that is imminently ahead of us. With this new round of funding ORA will seek to expand its presence into new territories, both geographically and with new offerings. Later this year ORA’s brands will arrive in retail across 1300 tier one stores bringing its accessible, medically-backed range of products to shelves. Looking at different geographies there are opportunities to expand into regions like the GCC. Charles Wong, Founding Partner at TNB Aura commented: “Since ORA’s early days, TNB Aura has been a firm believer and strong supporter of Elias and the ORA team in their unwavering mission to provide access to affordable high-quality healthcare. Their combined focus on specialised, and often taboo, healthcare verticals as well as a direct-to-patient approach has led the team to clearly differentiate itself while delivering market-leading unit economics that meet the tailored needs of patients across the full value chain.” Teddy Himler - Global Partner at Antler added: “Elias and team have learned from the extraordinary rise of telehealth globally and have applied it masterfully to the idiosyncratic (and often challenging) South East Asia region. We are inspired and supportive of their mission to become the “ Healthcare House of Brands” for the ~1B people in South East Asia and GCC who are underserved by the traditional healthcare system. We think ORA’s platform approach is the future of direct-to-patient healthcare globally.” About ORA ORA is a house of healthcare brands powered by a vertically integrated telehealth platform. Founded in 2020 by ex ZALORA CMO Elias Pour, it is now SEA’s fastest growing digital health provider operating in Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines with additional markets being launched during the rest of 2023. Its growing portfolio of healthcare brands includes Modules (prescription skincare), OVA (women’s health) and andSons (men’s health). Their HQ is located in Singapore. About TNB Aura At TNB Aura, we are investing in and helping to build the future of Southeast Asia. As a thesis-led, high-conviction venture capital firm, we use data-driven methodologies to identify and invest in select companies that are primed for the future and ready to change the very face of their categories. An approved co-investment partner of Enterprise Singapore, we invest US$2-10 million into Series A and B tech startups - and beyond that, we become true partners in their quest to uplift lives of The Next Billion. About Antler Antler is the investor backing the world’s most driven founders from day zero to greatness. Founded on the belief that people innovating is the key to building a better future, we partner with people across six continents to launch and scale high-potential startups that address meaningful opportunities and challenges. Knowing that exceptional founders can come from anywhere with any background, we have offices in 25 cities, including Austin, New York, London, Berlin, Stockholm, Bangalore, Jakarta, Singapore, Seoul, Tokyo, and Sydney. Our global community backs people from the beginning with co-founder matching, deep business model validation, initial capital, expansion support, and follow-on funding. Fueled by a personal passion that goes beyond traditional investing, we have helped create and invested in more than 750 startups across a wide range of industries and technologies, with the goal of backing more than 6,000 by 2030.
