It's an exciting day here at Arcade, as we announce our $14M Series A! Hear from Caroline below to learn more about what's next 🚀 🕹️
Today, I’m excited to share that Arcade has raised a $14M Series A led by Mamoon Hamid at Kleiner Perkins, alongside our existing investors, including Joanne Chen at Foundation Capital and Aditi Maliwal at Upfront Ventures. Creating great content that inspires and educates your audience is hard. It takes forever to build, gets outdated quickly, and is expensive to produce. On top of that, there's no data for teams to understand *what* potential and current customers want and *who* is engaging. Our mission is to empower teams to be great storytellers. Over 14,000 companies use Arcade to tell more engaging product stories, and engaged Arcade unique viewers is approaching 10M unique monthly views, which is growing exponentially. --- What's next? Arcade is capital efficient, but we raised this round to accomplish some ambitious goals: 🤖 We’re going all in on AI: We have already built significantly on top of it: We have synthetic voiceovers, automated translations, and suggested copy. However, as we’ve seen rapid adoption within companies, we realized that Arcade can become a powerful partner for intelligent content updates and generation based on data. That’s why we’re building Avery, Arcade’s AI agent. --- 📈 We’re continuing to invest in the future of content and collaboration across organizations. Arcade is not just an interactive demo tool: • Marketing teams build content with Arcade. • Design teams use us for design reviews. • Sales teams customize and use the signals from content to determine which accounts are best to go after. Plus, we’re super easy to use (6 mins to publish on average!), which has enabled us to grow and expand our presence within organizations. --- 🕹️ We’re continuing to build the team and hiring across the board! Check out our careers here: arcade.software/careers. --- Thank you to our customers for believing in us and being a partner in our business. Thank you to our Arcade team for showing up every day and giving it your all. We would not be here without you. A lot of people ask me, “When did Arcade begin?” and I believe it begins every day, because of the creativity and dedication of our team. Read more about it on Fortune here: https://lnkd.in/gepcWTtH.

Is your company taking advantage of interactive demo libraries yet? Here are three reasons why you should: 🤔 --- 1️⃣ Showcase multiple use cases: Tailor demos for different scenarios to help prospects see how your product solves their specific problems. 2️⃣ Accelerate sales cycles: With on-demand demos, you can reduce the number of sales calls needed and qualify leads faster. 🛑 Stop wasting time doing the same demo over and over again!! 🛑 3️⃣ Scale marketing and sales efforts: A library of interactive demos can be used across marketing campaigns, sales enablement, and customer education. Distribution, distribution, distribution... Interactive demo libraries are particularly effective for companies with complex products and multiple use cases. This strategy can deconstruct features and showcase critical use cases efficiently. 🚀 ... plus, allowing prospects to engage at their own pace (and on their terms!) leads to higher buyer intent. --- Here are some great customer libraries that we love 💙: • Labelbox: https://lnkd.in/eikJ-Pgt • Quantum Metric: https://lnkd.in/eTwesHH2 • Gardenia Technologies: https://lnkd.in/g58qwrCM
