Superpeer Raises $8M to Expand Its Expert Video Mentoring Platform
Superpeer, the innovative platform enabling experts to monetize their knowledge through video calls, has announced an $8 million funding round. This investment will fuel the company’s expansion into paid group mentoring channels, broadening opportunities for experts and learners alike.
From One-on-One to Group Mentoring
Initially launched as a platform for scheduling and monetizing individual video consultations, Superpeer is now introducing paid subscription channels. These new features allow experts to:
- Host group video sessions
- Engage audiences through chat
- Offer tiered subscription pricing
“Channels make expertise more accessible,” explains Devrim Yasar, Superpeer’s co-founder and CEO. “Instead of charging \(500 for a private session, experts can build communities with \)1-$5 monthly subscriptions while still offering premium one-on-one consultations.”
The Rise of Knowledge Monetization
The pandemic has accelerated demand for online learning and mentorship platforms. This trend is evident across the tech landscape:
- Squarespace recently introduced paywalled Member Areas
- Compe*****s like Prox are entering the video mentoring space
- Content creators seek alternatives to traditional social platforms
Yasar positions Superpeer as “OnlyFans for brains” — a premium platform for intellectuals and thought leaders to monetize their expertise without compromising their professional brand.
Technical and Financial Backing
Superpeer has focused on delivering a seamless browser-based video experience. The $8 million investment comes from prominent backers including:
- Acrew Capital
- Audacious Ventures
- Homebrew
- Moxxie Ventures
- Notable angel investors
This brings Superpeer’s total funding to $10 million, which will support:
- Team expansion (growth, partnerships, revenue)
- A new brand ambassador program
- Platform enhancements
The platform continues to differentiate itself by catering specifically to established experts, TED speakers, and public intellectuals seeking professional monetization options beyond book sales or guest appearances.
“If you’re an intellectual with an audience, you’ve never had a proper platform to monetize that following. YouTube and Instagram don’t align with these professionals’ brands.” — Devrim Yasar, Superpeer CEO
