London-based creator monetization platform Fanvue has closed a $22 million Series A funding round as the company reported reaching a $100 million annual revenue run rate, according to a press release. The platform, which launched in 2022, serves 250,000 creators and has recorded 17 million monthly active users.

Fanvue reports that 93% of creators on its platform used at least one of its proprietary AI tools, including analytics, voice, and content-generation capabilities.

Co-founder and CEO Will Monange described the raise as a “huge statement and a stamp of approval for Fanvue’s vision.”

Inner Circle led the Series A round, with participation from Moonbug founder René Rechtman, Marshmallow founders, and general partners from European venture firms. Inner Circle’s portfolio includes Revolut, Anthropic, and xAI.

“AI is redefining the creator economy. Fanvue isn’t reacting to that shift; they are pioneering it,” said James Cox, co-founder of Inner Circle. “Joel (Morris), Will, Harry (Fitzgerald), and the team are building the category-defining platform, enabling creators globally to monetise their audiences at scale.”

Platform Expansion and Creator Signings

Fanvue has also announced the signing of Swiss professional footballer Alisha Lehmann, who has more than 16 million Instagram followers. The company added more than 20,000 creators in the month preceding the announcement, with additional mainstream creator partnerships planned for early 2026.

“Thanks to AI, creators on Fanvue will be able to scale products, content, and connections in ways that weren’t possible before,” said Fitzgerald, co-founder and COO. “The technology will shift creators’ ability to directly monetise their fanbases, when traditionally they’ve had to rely on advertising.”

The funding will support global expansion, talent acquisition, and AI product development. Fanvue operates from its Canary Wharf headquarters in London and was recognized as the “Fastest-Growing Company in Europe” at the International Business Awards.
