Overview

Beek began as a social book-review app and pivoted to audio in 2019 to serve Spanish speakers with long commutes and limited Spanish audio content. Its core product is a marketplace where creators publish mini‑audiobooks and premium audio, with a revenue‑share model that drives creator income and user acquisition. The platform reports an 18x increase in paying subscribers over the past two years and says 35% of creators on the marketplace earn more than their local minimum wage in their first month. User geography is roughly 60% Mexico, 10% U.S. Hispanics and 30% other Latin America; the company employs 51 people. Beek plans to use new capital to build tools to produce content at scale and to improve the listener experience so the product becomes more engaging and addictive.
