Flowbo provides funding of up to $25K for content creators with predictable platform revenue and helps all creators get paid early from platforms & brands. Website: https://www.flowbo.co/ Private beta: https://app.flowbo.co/
Daniel and Norman are co-founders of Flowbo. Daniel was an investment professional at Softbank Vision Fund, focused on fintech including working capital marketplace C2FO and was a Board Observer of the largest used-car marketplace in Europe Auto1 (ETR:AG1). Norman spent the past 7 years pricing risk of securities in quant finance including Maven and Getco. He's also worked as a data scientist and developer at Facebook and Wealthfront.
Flowbo provides funding to creators with predictable platform revenue. We help them productize their future revenues and raise funding from investors. Creators often need funding to spread out expenses, diversity content, and monetize their audience. For example, a Twitch streamer who has to stream live to make money can use funding to hire an editor (spread out expenses) to edit Twitch content (optimize production) into YouTube and Patreon content (increase monetization).

@daniel_s_kang1@normanyu thank you for sharing this! The traditional finance system just doesn't understand the creator economy, and we are in dire need of something like Flowbo... have heard so many stories of creators not able to get a single penny from the banks, in spite of having such captive audiences on different platforms :(
Would love to know if this is just for individual creators, or teams can also apply (like the Faze Clan, MrBeast & friends etc)?
@normanyu@adityavsc Hey Aditya, absolutely agree that we need alternative forms to make funding available to creators! We definitely work with groups as well - feel free to reach out at daniel@flowbo if you had anything specific in mind!

Looks great Daniel! Heavily need to unlock more people supporting themselves full time doing what they love. Any thoughts around enabling followers to share in the success of creators that they help get big?
@stephen_titus Thanks a lot Stephen! We're trying to help people do what they love! Eventually we'd want to allow anyone and everyone to be able to invest in their favorite creators and share in their success! Stay tuned.
Amazing product and team to tackle this problem. There is nothing more painful than dealing with outdated banks that haven't adapted to current trends. I'll be following this one closely!
@mizrahietai Thanks for the support Etai! We should think about credit of a person more broadly and provide funding to people who need it and use it for good!
@dylan_brookes Thanks for the support! It's extremely clear that funding can enable creators to grow much faster and be experimental with their content. Let's see what happens in the next few months!

Finally an app that understands the creator economy. Content creators like myself struggle to collect investors and brands, Flowbo will be a really helpful source. Love the simple and sleek design for an easy interface. Looking forward to using this app!
