We have been impressed with Gaurav Misra, Dwight Churchill, and the Captions team since our partnership many years ago. Big congrats to the team on today's Series C fundraise announcement and on reaching an exciting milestone of 10M+ creators! We are excited to continue supporting Captions on their mission to democratize video creation and storytelling using AI.
It’s been a big year for Captions, and it’s only July. Building on this momentum, we’re excited to announce our $60M Series C, led by Index Ventures. That brings our total capital raised to $100M, which we’ll be investing in AI video research right here in New York City. We built Captions to make it easy for anyone, anywhere to tell their story with a video — we believe that AI unlocks new possibilities to generate and edit talking videos, and that AI will change the future of video as we know it. Looking at the past year, there’s a lot to be proud of: we hit 10M+ global creators, launched a collection of world-first generative features, and our customers created over 3M videos each month — telling diverse stories, transcending language barriers, and even falling in love, as profiled in the New York Times. Our team also grew from 15 to 60 here in New York City. We’re thrilled to welcome back returning investors Kleiner Perkins, Andreessen Horowitz, and Sequoia Capital, and new investors Adobe Ventures, HubSpot Ventures, and Jared Leto to this round. We’re grateful for your support. Read more about our fundraise in Bloomberg News, covered by Rachel Metz. If you’re interested in joining a fast-moving team that’s defining the future of AI in video, check out our careers page: https://lnkd.in/gYQ-B8mm —we’d love to talk.

Beth Turner, Steven Lee, Ashvin Bachireddy, and the entire SVA crew are incredible! Not only do they have an awesome network of founders, but they didn't even bat an eye when a T-Rex and giant pumpkin walked through the door. Happy Halloween!
