How Clouted Automates Clipping and Short-Video Promotion — $7M and a 100k-Creator Network

Friends, I’d like to share an AI update — Clouted automates the selection and distribution of short video clips.

- The platform mobilizes over 100,000 independent creators for clipping and uses AI to pick the optimal platform and target audiences.
- Its tech was validated at the &Friends festival, promoting an event to 20,000+ attendees.
- The startup raised $7M in a seed round led by Slow Ventures.
- AI runs a continuous testing loop of formats and channels, improving campaign performance — an approach akin to penetration testing for algorithms.

Why it matters: automation reduces operating costs and makes campaign targeting more efficient.

Would you trust AI to select clips and allocate distribution?
