Cast Insights Raises $4.5M Pre-Seed Round

Cast Insights raised $4.5 million in pre-seed funding to expand its AI platform for analyzing public spoken content.

Abstract Ventures led the round, with participation from HF0, Village Global, Max Ventures, Embassy Ventures, and Stratus Ventures.

The platform ingests speech from TV, radio, podcasts, and livestreams, then turns it into structured, searchable intelligence.

The tool could help investors, policy teams, and newsrooms spot emerging narratives and respond faster.
