Minneapolis-based startup Gudea has secured $7 million in a seed funding round co-led by Mudita Venture Partners and Silicon Road Ventures. This latest investment brings the company's total funding to approximately $15 million since its founding in 2023.
The platform uses deep learning and graph neural networks to track how information spreads across over 600 social media platforms. By analyzing behavioral patterns rather than just keywords, the software predicts the virality, reach, and lifespan of online narratives.
Gudea reports a 357% year-over-year revenue growth and currently serves 39 customers, including major AI firms and businesses in the retail and telecommunications sectors. The company employs approximately 25 people.
The startup plans to utilize the new capital to expand its team, develop additional product features, and broaden its coverage across various regions, languages, and digital platforms.
