Mobicious was established in 2006 as a provider in the mobile content and services space. The firm was headquartered in Needham, MA, and focused on developing applications and a photo-sharing site specifically for mobile phones. The company operated within the multimedia and design software industry, aiming to capitalize on the growing use of mobile devices for content consumption and creation.
In June 2007, Mobicious secured $4 million in a Series A venture capital round, which was followed by another round, bringing its total funding to $9 million. The primary investors in the company were North Bridge Venture Partners and Viola Ventures. This capital was intended to support product development and expand its market presence.
The company's trajectory shifted in August 2010 when it was acquired by SnapOne, a company also operating in the multimedia and design software sector. Following this, Mobicious was involved in a merger and acquisition deal with Inkubook in January 2012, marking the conclusion of its independent operations.
