About
AppX is a New Delhi-based creator economy platform that enables social media creators to build branded mobile apps and websites to monetize their audience directly — offering tools to sell e-books, online courses, digital downloads, NFTs, and e-commerce products through a creator-owned branded app rather than relying entirely on social platform algorithms and monetization programs. Founded in 2020 and a Y Combinator graduate, AppX raised $1.3 million in seed funding and reached $2 million in revenue by 2024 with 67 employees, targeting the growing Indian and global creator population seeking direct monetization beyond Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.
