Investment: “Emberos raises $5.5M”
Emberos, a Los Angeles, CA-based provider of an operating system for AI Brand Management, raised $5.5m in seed funding.
Backers included a private consortium of strategic angel investors. The round brings the total amount raised to $6.7m following a $1.2m pre-seed round in January 2026.
Founded in 2025 and led by Justin Inman, Founder and CEO, emberos provides an operating system for AI Brand Management that enables brands to understand how AI systems perceive them, predict where their narrative is heading, shape that narrative at the source, and prove what changed. The platform is powered by a brand knowledge graph and a suite of specialized AI agents.
The company’s product roadmap includes CreatorGraph, an extension of emberos’s Brand Knowledge Graph that maps creators, communities and independent publishers alongside brands and products. The solution is used by brands including Stagwell, The Honest Company, RA Capital Management, Monigle, BERO and WHITESPACE across industries such as entertainment, gaming, studios and agencies.
The company will use the funding to accelerate work already underway, including development of CreatorGraph and related capabilities.
