Costella Kirsch, a pioneer and leader in Structured Debt financing for emerging technology companies, and Western Technology Investment (WTI), one of the oldest venture debt firms that invests globally in a wide range of technology and life science companies, have formed a syndicated consortium to back the growth of DailyFeats, a website and app that helps people be better, one step at a time.

"We've had great success in our inaugural year, closing customer contracts worth millions of dollars," said Veer Gidwaney, DailyFeats CEO and Co-Founder. As a result of its marketplace performance and growth, DailyFeats secured a material seven-figure financing with terms that do not compromise the integrity of its social mission.

While DailyFeats has now cumulatively raised millions from angel investors and, as of today, from Costella Kirsch and WTI, it operates with a purely common share ownership structure and has never amended its governance procedures to raise capital. DailyFeats will utilize the funds to grow its team with product specialists, engineers, and sales and marketing professionals.

"Working with like-minded investors who believe in the social mission of DailyFeats is central to developing our business," said Gidwaney. "Costella Kirsch and WTI bring invaluable venture experience to this partnership, and we look forward to the growth this funding will enable for DailyFeats."

"We were impressed by the DailyFeats team, with their relevant experience and proven track record. They have developed meaningful market traction in a capital efficient manner, and this financing will enable them to accelerate the company's growth," said Richard Ginn of Costella Kirsch. "We look forward to supporting them as they work to positively impact the health of individuals and society as a whole."
