SEATTLE, July 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Storika, an AI-native platform that automates end-to-end influencer marketing for direct-to-consumer brands, has closed a seed funding round on undisclosed terms. The round included a strategic investment from global beauty conglomerate Amorepacific, with participation from Schmidt, Hustle Fund, BonAngels Venture Partners, and Krew Capital.

Replacing the Marketing Operations Layer with AI

Influencer marketing has long been a manual, relationship-driven process. Brands spend significant resources identifying creators, managing outreach, negotiating terms, coordinating deliverables, and measuring results. Storika replaces that operational layer with an AI orchestrator that runs the complete campaign workflow autonomously, from discovery and personalized outreach through content delivery and performance tracking.

Unlike software dashboards that surface data for human action, Storika is built to act. Its AI orchestrator directs a network of specialized agents across each stage of campaign execution, learning from marketer feedback and past campaign results to improve accuracy over time. The platform draws on a database of more than seven million global creator profiles and structures creator, content, brand, and audience relationships in a graph database to surface fit beyond follower counts or keyword matching.

Current clients include Amorepacific and Hanpoom, a Korean food and lifestyle ecommerce platform, with a growing focus on U.S. D2C beauty and lifestyle brands. "We were highly impressed by Storika's proprietary AI agent technology and the immense growth potential we see in the global creator marketing landscape," said a representative from Amorepacific's investment team.

Use of Proceeds

Storika will deploy the capital to advance its AI agent infrastructure and grow its U.S. B2B customer base. The platform goes live on July 15 at the Google for Startups Accelerator: Korea Demo Day.

"The era of running influencer campaigns on experience-based judgment and manual, spreadsheet-driven workflows is ending," said Brice Lee, CEO of Storika. "AI-powered execution is taking its place, and brands that adopt it early will operate with a structural advantage in both cost and speed. With this funding and our July open beta, we are building the infrastructure that allows global D2C brands to run creator marketing with the precision and repeatability of software."

About Storika

Storika is an AI-native creator marketing automation platform purpose-built for D2C brands. Powered by a database of over seven million global creator profiles, its AI orchestrator manages the full influencer campaign lifecycle, including discovery, outreach, execution, and performance analysis. Storika is headquartered in Seattle, Washington.

Storika Closes Seed Round to Scale AI-Native Creator Marketing Platform

SINGAPORE, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Peikko, together with the Embassy of Finland in Singapore, brought together leaders from Singapore's built environment sector, government, engineering and development communities for "2030: Doing More with Less – Connecting Sustainability with Productivity," exploring how construction can increase productivity while reducing the use of materials, labour and other resources.

Held on 21 October at the residence of H.E. Juha Markkanen, Ambassador of Finland to Singapore, the event brought together representatives from Peikko, the Embassy of Finland, Singapore's Building and Construction Authority (BCA), Ramboll and leading organisations across the construction and property sector.

The programme opened with an address on Finland–Singapore collaboration by H.E. Juha Markkanen. Justin Lim, Deputy Director of the Built Environment Tech Alliance (BETA), addressed Singapore's path to building smarter and greener.

Speakers also included Ted Howland, Senior Director, Group Sustainability at CapitaLand Investment; Ar. Razvan I. Ghilic-Micu, Director at DP Architects; and Alessandro Marzucchini, Technical Director and MMC Director at Ramboll, bringing together perspectives from across the built environment.

A panel discussion moderated by Joona Selin, Trade & Innovation Counsellor at the Embassy of Finland, explored how sustainability ambitions can translate into greater construction productivity.

"The construction industry needs to deliver more while consuming fewer resources. Achieving this requires us to rethink not only what we build, but how we design, manufacture and assemble structures. By combining efficient structural solutions with industrialised construction, we can improve productivity while supporting the transition towards a lower-carbon built environment," said Topi Paananen, CEO of Peikko Group.

The programme also explored Modern Methods of Construction and Peikko's solutions for efficient, prefabricated structures.

The event concluded with industry networking at CapitaSpring, continuing the exchange between Peikko's international leadership and Singapore's construction, engineering, development and design communities.
