The spectrum, the start -up company, which works with some of YouTube's biggest stars, has prepared employees this week, the company assured the Business Insider.
Bi was unable to determine the exact number of affected workers, but the redundancies affected the teams throughout the company.
“As the macroeconomic environment is evolving, we have made a complex but strategic decision to implement the organizational changes, including the reduction in the size of our team,” Spotter spokesman told BI.
A spokesman said the cuts help “accelerate our way to profitability by the end of this year”.
Spotter is a big player in the sunset room. Last year, it was awarded to Amazon's funding for a larger transaction to work with Spotter's creator partners. The company's talent pool includes MRBEA, Dude Perfect and Ryan Traan. Established in 2019, Spotter, founded in 2019, built the Creator's Licensing Rights. In March, the company announced that it has paid more than $ 950 million to the creators.
This month, Spotter organized a spraying pitch for creators and advertisers in New York. According to the company, this week's redundancy did not affect the Spotter advertising team.
The paragraphs mark the second round of redundancy over the last six months. The company compiled employees in November, spokesman said before InformationTo.
Spotter is not the only licensing of the creator's content over the past year. Jellysmack, a competitor who shares Softbank as an investor, made cuts in October during the reorganization. Some start -ups focused on creators' services have not been able to fulfill growth expectations, industry investors previously told B.
Spotter also offers AI-support products that help creators develop video ideas, titles and thumbnails. It runs an advertising company that also connects the brands with the creators.
