TESTIMONIALS

Stories from the founders who’ve grown with us

From day one, Audacity understood our vision and the transformative potential of AI in media. They were not just investors, but true partners in guiding us, challenging us, and backing us with capital and conviction at every stage. Their belief has been instrumental in shaping VideoVerse into the company it is today.
Vinayak Shrivastav
Founder & CEO, Videoverse
What stood out about Audacity was how quickly they understood the product—and the market we’re building for. Because they’re specialists, we didn’t have to translate. They built conviction fast, asked the right second-order questions, and became a true thought partner on GTM and FTM++. It feels like having an operator on our side.
Dhawal Gusain
Co-founder, Postudio
Audacity, a media-founder run VC, is a first for us. It has enabled the founding team at Rusk to leap through multiple years of media experience. Over the last six months – countless brainstorming sessions, directed actionable insights and right introductions have helped us not only grow our business & generate revenue but significantly build market credibility for Rusk via key strategic partnerships. Kabir’s understanding of media has helped us craft our UGC gaming strategy while leveraging our traditional business. Moreover, Kabir’s founder first outlook & support has continuously fueled optimism with the Rusk team!
