Riverside Raises $20 Million

Podcast recording platform Riverside said that it has raised $30 million in Series C funding led by Zeev Ventures, with participation from Seven Seven Six, and angel investor Sam Lessin. The company wants to use this funding to grow its team and build out solutions for the podcast and content creation space. The startup, which was founded in 2020, has now raised $80 million in funding to date, with Zeev and Seven Seven Six participating in multiple rounds. The startup also counts Casey Neistat, Marques Brownlee, Guy Raz,  Elad Gil and Alexander Klöpping as angel investors. The startup’s $35 million Series B raise came in 2022. Seven Seven Six’s founder and general partner Alexis Ohanian said that he was personally looking for solutions to help him record podcasts. He noted that, as an early investor and product designer, it was a “game recognize game” moment after discovering Riverside. He said that the company understands creator pain points very well.
