Kuku raises $85M to expand its mobile content platform

Indian mobile content platform Kuku has raised $85 million in a new funding round. The company will use the capital to expand its audio content offerings. It also plans to improve its technology for both creators and listeners. Kuku provides a wide range of audio content on its mobile app. This includes audiobooks, stories, podcasts, and educational courses. The service makes digital content more accessible to a broader audience. It caters to millions of users who prefer listening over reading or who consume content in their native language. This approach helps Kuku reach listeners in smaller towns and non-urban areas. The company aims to use the new funds to attract more creators to its platform. It will also focus on strengthening its market position across India. This investment highlights the growing demand for localized, audio-based digital media.
