We’re excited to share that Mozaic has raised $20 million in our Series A round, led by Volition Capital!

At Mozaic, we believe creators and their collaborators deserve faster, simpler ways to get paid. That’s why we built a platform that lets creators split payments automatically — no spreadsheets, no awkward payment chases, and no borders standing in the way.

With this new funding, we’re expanding our platform beyond music into the broader creator economy. Soon, you’ll be able to add payment splits directly to platforms like YouTube, Spotify, Etsy, and GitHub — right from a Chrome extension or mobile app.

Our mission has always been simple: help creators thrive by making payments effortless.

We’re just getting started.

When Marcus Cobb launched Jammber (now Mozaic) — a workflow tool for the music industry — he didn’t just face the usual startup hurdles. He also battled a tornado, a pandemic, and the brutal reality of raising capital outside Silicon Valley.

Instead of chasing celebrity investors and flashy headlines, Marcus focused on building authentic relationships with low-profile angels and strategic mentors. When funding dried up, he didn’t panic — he pivoted. A last-minute hackathon led to SplitPay, a royalty payout tool that scaled Jammber from 50,000 to 2.5 million users.

His story is packed with gold for founders and creators alike: How to pitch better, find the right investors, and turn tough times into rocket fuel for growth.
