Our Story

From discovering short films to powering creator campaigns.

Shortfundly began in 2015 with a simple belief: short films deserve the same discovery, respect, and opportunity as feature-length cinema. What started as a curated OTT experience for filmmakers and audiences has grown into a broader creator ecosystem—including crowdfunding tools that help independent storytellers fund, launch, and deliver their work.

Milestones

  • 2015 — Shortfundly launches as a short-film discovery and distribution platform.
  • 2018 — Community programs and filmmaker outreach expand across India.
  • 2022 — Creator tools and campaign infrastructure enter development.
  • Today — Creators use Shortfundly to raise funds, engage backers, and grow their audience.

We are headquartered in Chennai and backed by a community of creators, backers, and partners who believe independent media should be sustainable—not a one-off hustle.
