Reface Closes €15.2M in Non-Dilutive Funding to Accelerate AI Consumer App Growth

Kyiv-based AI content creation startup Reface has secured €15.2 million ($18 million) in non-dilutive user acquisition financing from PvX Partners, a Singapore-based financial services and data intelligence firm focused on consumer apps. The funding will support Reface’s next growth phase across AI-powered creativity, wellbeing, and health applications.

Founded in 2018, Reface builds AI-native consumer tools including Reface, Revive, and Restyle, with a portfolio exceeding 300 million downloads globally. The company gained early visibility after a viral face-swap shared by Elon Musk, and its apps have since been used by high-profile artists and global brands.

Led by Anton Volovyk, Reface is backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Ilkka Paananen, David Helgason, Scooter Braun, and others, positioning it as a leading AI consumer platform emerging from Eastern Europe.
