BeReal, a rising social media app that emphasizes authenticity, is making its first outreach to brands and celebrities. Over the last year, BeReal has rolled out a number of new features like groups, mentions, multiple posts per day, pinned posts and a “friends of friends” feed. But the problem with BeReal, and its commitment to fostering existing friendships, is that it can’t make money. Like any other user on BeReal, they will have to post on time at the spur of the moment. Well, if we’re about to start seeing BeReal posts from brands, may we humbly nominate the Duolingo Owl for early access?

Digital Onboarding, a SaaS company specializing in helping financial institutions strengthen relationships with customers, secured $58 million in growth capital from Volition Capital to continue developing its digital engagement platform. They changed the name to Digital Onboarding and began selling its engagement platform to banks and credit unions in January of 2018. Communications from financial institutions, which are under strict regulations, is often paper-based, especially when opening a new account. This often leads to between 25% and 40% of new checking accounts closed within the first year, said Brown, CEO of Digital Onboarding, citing a statistic from the 2023 Future of Finance Report. Digital Onboarding is working with more than 140 financial institution customers.
