Is B2C Dead?


I'v been scanning all of the seed series A raises in the last year and a half on crunchbase, and could bearly find anything interesting.

Most of the things that I saw are nichefied concepts of already existing markets.

New gen AI - make me a pic/song/movie of X <- doubt these companies will be able to sustain a moat.

I also couldn't find any good B2C communities, except indie hacker ones.

Is the B2C industry dead? Have all the good ideas been hashed out already?

If you think I'm wrong pls post a few good series A/Seed rounds that you think are worth taking a look at.

Cheers

A lot of B2C market has been tapped and the faucets are relatively low right now. While B2B startups are able to raise rounds, usually because they either require talent or resources or they need time for research for innovation.

While B2C is an already defined segment hence pretty much any one can enter but surviving long enough and providing support and updates for relatively new technologies, is difficult.

Hence it is like air and water both on two different levels. Either they drown or they fly. BTW Cursory raised $8M https://www.cursor.com/blog/series-a
