Light is a Tokyo-based startup building Palmu, a live-streaming–driven platform designed to serve as a welcoming digital "home" where diverse users can gather, interact, and grow communities. The product supports multiple streaming styles and participation modes, allowing both beginners and experienced creators to engage in ways that feel natural to them. Light continually refines the service to emphasize safety, fairness, and transparent community management. The company plans to invest heavily in improving product quality, expanding features that strengthen community connections beyond basic streaming, and enhancing mechanisms that prevent trouble before it occurs. Additional capital will also support governance, internal controls, and strategic hiring to scale the organization for medium- to long-term growth. Including the latest raise, Light’s total funding has reached ¥2.15 billion, giving the team resources to accelerate product innovation and organizational expansion.
