The round was led by Earlybird Venture Capital and joined by Upside VC and The Sidemen, a venture fund operated by a popular YouTube group. Since its inception in 2021, Ceartas has significantly impacted the digital content space by delisting over 1 billion infringing items and eliminating over $500 million in stolen content across various platforms, including OnlyFans.
