Muzy is a mobile-first social microblogging platform that presents content in a Pinterest-style grid and emphasizes photos alongside text, games and other widgets. The product features an app-within-app model and offers roughly 50 widgets for publishing and creative expression. Founded in 2011 and based in San Francisco, Muzy is led by co-founders Andrew Chen (CEO) and Matt Rubens (CTO). The service has about 20 million users and is adding roughly 1 million users per month. The company currently employs fewer than 10 people and plans to use new funding to staff up and build out its suite of creative publishing tools. Potential monetization routes discussed include sponsored widgets, channels or pages and experiments around brand engagement.
