RebelMouse began as a tool to aggregate social media into a "social front page" and has since morphed into a full CMS platform for brands and media. The platform enables customers to build mobile and native applications, create content communities, and run social A/B testing with notifications pushed into other networks. RebelMouse introduced a content aggregation tool called The River late last year and is working on several stealth projects with brands. The company emphasizes making publishing tools usable for content creators without requiring a tech team. Recent hiring includes Craig Fanning, formerly Adobe’s Western regional sales director, to help land larger enterprise and household brand clients. The article states much of the new funding will be used to expand the sales team while some will improve product and tech teams. RebelMouse is a social site-maker that lets anyone create a visually rich site based on their social updates. The company is described as an early-stage, consumer-focused startup. It announced a $10 million first round of funding. The round was led by Oak Investment Partners. Other participants included Japanese mobile company SoftBank, Sterling Investment Partners, and Buddy Media founder Mike Lazerow. The article did not disclose valuation, revenue, or use-of-proceeds details. Rebel Mouse builds a social front page that automatically aggregates and displays content users share from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other social networks.

Rebel Mouse is rolling out paid custom functions as part of its product roadmap. The company announced a $2.5M seed funding round reported by FinSMEs.
