On Monday, the disgraced comedian and actor, 51, was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison, after being convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.
Last week, it was revealed two further rape allegations against Brand were already being investigated and Metropolitan Police commissioner Sir Mark Rowley said he expected more victims to come forward.
A spokesperson for the force said on Tuesday: "Several people have contacted the investigation team during and since the trial to provide information or report a potential criminal allegation.
"Detectives are assessing this information as part of their ongoing enquiries."
Jemima Goldsmith, a British journalist and screenwriter and former girlfriend of Brand, posted on social media hours after he was sentenced to say she had personally experienced Brand's "violence, coercive control and abuse".
She said she was "in awe of the courageous women who came forward" during the trial, adding she helped the journalists who exposed him.
"I had to call the police to have him removed from my house in 2014 during a violent incident," she wrote.
Goldsmith said she chose not to press charges and go public as she was worried about the impact of press attention on her children.
"I am glad and relieved that Russell Brand has finally faced justice," Goldsmith said.
The pair dated for about a year in 2014, and Goldsmith said she has "neither seen nor spoken to Brand since that period".
The former head of Channel 4 News offered "personal thanks" to Jemima Goldsmith, saying she "alerted" her to Brand being a potential "danger to other women".
In a post on X, Dorothy Byrne said Goldsmith alerted her to Brand "because she believed, based on her own experience, he was a danger to other women and must be exposed".
Byrne told Sky News on Monday that a key reason she started an investigation into Brand - which the channel eventually aired as a Dispatches documentary in 2023 - was because she heard allegations that "led me to believe he was a danger to women who should be locked up".
Brand's convictions last week at London's Southwark Crown Court relate to offences committed against four different women between 2004 and 2009.
He was convicted of raping a woman in 2009. She told the court that after consensual vaginal sex, and without warning or consent, Brand anally raped her, leaving her in such pain she was unable to "speak or breathe".
Brand was convicted of sexually assaulting a female Channel 4 worker in 2009, shortly after he had started dating pop star Katy Perry.

The woman, who was working alone with Brand and his entourage, was forced to massage him, and at one point he knelt down and put his head in her lap, with his nose and mouth in her "vaginal area".
Brand was found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman at a bar in Soho in 2004, where he grabbed her breasts within seconds of meeting her. She was left "extremely upset and traumatised", the judge said.
Brand was also convicted for sexually assaulting a Choice FM worker in either 2004 or 2005. She told the court he kissed her "sloppily", groped her body, and laughed when she eventually managed to push him away.
Brand was acquitted of two other rape charges and one count of attempted indecent assault.
The 51-year-old had denied all the charges, claiming all the sexual contact was consensual as he pursued an extremely promiscuous lifestyle during the height of his fame.
It comes after a legal challenge by a gay man who said the Caribbean nation's laws breached his human rights.
Jason Jones, who was born in Trinidad and Tobago, challenged the nation's Sexual Offences Act as breaching his fundamental rights under the country's constitution.
He initially won his case at Trinidad and Tobago's High Court, but that ruling was overturned, prompting Mr Jones to go to London's Privy Council, the final court of appeal for Trinidad and Tobago and some other Commonwealth countries.
The Privy Council ruled that Trinidad and Tobago's law was unconstitutional.
Judge Philip Sales said as he announced the court's ruling that "the current understanding of the fundamental individual right to respect for private and family life is that it protects such a core part of human identity as one's sexual orientation".
"Laws which seek to criminalise such activities cannot be justified," the judge added.

Sky News has learnt that Gordon Brothers agreed to unlock roughly £10m held on Poundland's balance sheet on Tuesday, just hours before the US investment firm's top UK executive is grilled by MPs over its stewardship of the chain.
Industry sources said the release of the funds was "a vital step" but cautioned that it did not automatically mean that Poundland would be able to avert collapsing into administration as soon as this week.
Gordon Brothers' move comes after one of the solvent bidders for Poundland said the resumption of supplier payments was essential to the prospects of a deal.
Martin Property Group is said to remain interested in a deal, while another bidder, Xyra Group Holdings, has been reported to be the frontrunner to do a deal because it is offering to repay more of a £30m shareholder loan up front.
A notice of intention to appoint administrators expires on Thursday, and Poundland's directors will be unable to seek an extension to it unless they are confident that creditors' interests would not be compromised by doing so.
If they cannot be satisfied that that is the case, they would have no choice but to proceed with the appointment of AlixPartners as administrators.
That would pose a serious threat to roughly 10,500 jobs just weeks before Christmas, and leave Poundland's 600 stores in the UK and Ireland open to being cherry-picked by high street rivals.
The notice was filed after Gordon Brothers froze Poundland's bosses' access to company funds after accusing them of breaching the terms of its asset-based lending facility - an accusation they are said to reject.

Poundland has not placed any supplier orders for at least two weeks, meaning that even the latest release of funding offers no guarantee of survival.
Gordon Brothers has rejected a number of going concern offers for Poundland on the basis that it would not receive adequate repayment of its share of a £30m shareholder loan for which it paid just £1.
Mark Newton-Jones, Gordon Brothers' top UK executive, will appear before MPs on the business and trade select committee on Wednesday to explain the firm's conduct.
Committee members are expected to grill him on the reasons for the sudden resignation of three Poundland directors just two weeks after their appointment, as well as Gordon Brothers' insistence that it is trying to salvage as many jobs as possible.
Poundland declined to comment, while Gordon Brothers could not be reached for comment.
The Duchess of Edinburgh heard about efforts to help women and girls as part of her commitment to the Women, Peace and Security agenda and the UK's Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative.
She met children living in Camp 4, and learnt about their education and experiences.
The duchess travelled to the Unicef learning centre, and visited a Women and Girls' Safe Space, run by the International Organisation for Migration.
She also toured a soap factory within the camps run by the Programme for Helpless and Lagged Societies, a Cox's Bazar-based non-governmental organisation working with Rohingya refugees and vulnerable host communities.
The visit aimed to demonstrate how livelihood programmes can bolster Rohingya women's economic empowerment and self-reliance where access to formal work is limited.
Sophie handled the soap, and watched the pink blocks being produced and cut.

Since 2017, more than 1.2 million Rohingya refugees have fled persecution and violence in Myanmar's Rakhine State to find shelter in the densely populated camps in Cox's Bazar - the world's biggest refugee settlement.
It means the maker of the Claude AI assistant will not launch the largest public listing, as had been anticipated.
Instead, Elon Musk's company SpaceX will remain the most expensive initial public offering (IPO) at $1.77trn.
The target valuation, however, would still make Anthropic one of the most valuable companies in the world.
It would be behind just a handful of tech giants in value, with titans like Nvidia, Apple and Microsoft outpacing it.
While the values are eye-watering - as one trillion seconds equals 31,689 years - it's lower than had been anticipated by Wall Street analysts.
By comparison, one million seconds is 11.5 days; a billion seconds amounts to more than 31 years.
A $2bn valuation had been discussed before $1.5bn was expected by analysts.
The drop to $1.4trn comes as concern over AI spending mounts.
On Friday, tech stocks experienced a sell-off as the US midterms heralded a blue tsunami of Democratic victories, some of whom benefited from anti-data centre and anti-AI policies.
There had been speculation that Anthropic would delay its IPO as a result.
But the announcement coincides with another rally in tech stocks as the Friday falls reversed.
The world's most valuable company, the AI chip maker Nvidia, is still suffering losses as its founder and chief executive, Jensen Huang, admitted to having an affair.
The woman he had the affair with is an alleged Chinese spy and Donald Trump has said the FBI is looking into the Nvidia CEO.
