Outverse, a London, UK-based ‘full-stack’ community platform for modern SaaS companies, announced that it has secured $6 million in seed funding.
The round was led by Wing VC, with participation from Notion Capital, Seedcamp, Connect Ventures, and Tiny VC.
Outverse, currently in beta, is a community product designed to cater to the needs and use cases of software companies. It empowers product teams by providing an extensible and configurable platform to connect with customers and users.
At launch, Outverse integrates with workplace essentials like Slack and Figma, with further integrations and robust API access coming later this year. The platform leverages AI to make information easy to find and provides customers with the brand and SEO benefits of a custom domain and fully indexable discussions and knowledge base.
Kyran Schmidt, co-founder of Outverse, says, “The companies that win big in the next decade will be those that proactively build closer, more authentic relationships with their user community. Outverse will offer companies a complete ecosystem for staying close to their customers, enabling a new generation of iconic products and businesses to emerge.”
