PRESS RELEASE — Blankit Media, a next-generation entertainment company powered by generative AI, has announced the launch of its $1.2 million Seed funding round via a Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) offering on StartEngine. The campaign supports the company’s mission to help content creators build and monetize their own AI-powered influencer brands-without relying on traditional production teams or agencies.

Blankit Media is developing proprietary AI systems to generate high-performing, short-form video content across platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. By combining generative video, synthetic voice, and animated character tools, the company is building a scalable AI tool-enabling creators and brands to produce, test, and optimize branded content at speed and scale, while maintaining full ownership of their IP.

“We want to give creators superpowers,” said Trey Young, Co-Founder and CEO of Blankit Media. “We’re building tools that let anyone create their own AI influencer, test content in real time, and compete at the level of a full media studio.”

With over 66 million views last quarter from creator-led content, Blankit Media has already demonstrated strong audience engagement and monetization. The company is now transitioning to a fully AI-powered model designed to deliver original video series, branded content partnerships, and character licensing-bringing studio-quality media to market faster and more efficiently.

Regulation Crowdfunding Campaign Proceeds Will Be Used To:

  • Expand proprietary AI video and voice generation tools
  • Launch original AI-native video series and animated characters
  • Build branded content and licensing partnerships
  • Scale publishing across monetized short-form platforms
  • Accelerate trend testing and performance optimization through automation
