Humanz, a Tel-Aviv, Israel-based startup which developed an AI-based influencer marketing platform, completed a $5 million Series A round.
The round was led by strategic investors, including Yuval Tal, the founder of the fintech company Payoneer. This round brings the company's total fundraising to $17 million.
Humanz has developed a platform that characterizes a customer journey (follower) on websites and knows how to measure and reflect in real time the success of influencers and content creators.
"In recent times, advertisers are looking more and more for a measurable and performance-oriented approach,” said Liav Refael-Chen, co-founder and CEO of Humanz. “We bring this news to the world through our platform. We enable brands and content creators to work more and earn more. The goal is to give value to our customers in both the strategic sense of working with creators and on the technological side. As entrepreneurs, we have always believed in this way and this is how we built the company from day one, even when the market behaved differently. Liran's joining is strategic and important for our continued growth. We continue to grow in an efficient and smart way, acting with high sensitivity to the state of the markets, with an emphasis on the U.S."
In addition to the completion of the funding, Humanz also announced the appointment of Liran Liberman to the position of Chief Revenue Officer. Before Humanz, Liberman worked in a series of senior positions at Google.
