Type text, dream video
We build generative video models that turn text prompts into video content. Our product enables users to create videos by simply typing what they want to see, capturing their ideas visually without the typical video production complexity.
We currently live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.
We chose to be in San Francisco because it's where our network is, and it has the talent and resources we need to build and grow a deep AI video product.
