Small Demons

4051 Glencoe Avenue #9, Marina del Rey, California, 90292, United States

Overview

Small Demons is a stealth LA-based startup led by former Yahoo product VPs Valla Vakili and Tony Amidei, with former Myspace data leaders Christa Stelzmuller and Hala Al-Adwan on the team. The company’s homepage indicates an alpha launch but provides no product details. Its past slogans—"Unlocking the world’s stories" and "When you love something so much you want to experience everything attached to it"—and terms of service referencing user-generated content suggest a focus on content aggregation or related social/content experiences. Vakili and Amidei previously worked together on an aggregator called news-to.me while at Yahoo, which lends credence to the aggregation theory. The startup’s specific roadmap and monetization plans are not disclosed in the article. Financially, Small Demons had $750k in prior angel funding and has recently filed for a $3M Series A.
