What Presti AI does

Furniture companies spend millions and months each year on photoshoots or CGI to create product images as these visuals are crucial for driving sales. Presti offers a faster and cheaper solution powered by generative AI. Unlike other generative AI tools, our core model is optimized for furniture products and includes multiple features tailored to the unique needs of furniture industry. We have 100 paying B2B users with a 10% growth week over week. We raised a $3.5M seed round

Helping furniture companies create product visuals with AI

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI product that generates realistic furniture images for retailers and manufacturers. It replaces expensive photoshoots and CGI by using a model optimized specifically for furniture, with features tailored to their unique visual needs.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

Our team is distributed; we don't have a fixed base yet. After YC, we plan to remain distributed but centered on wherever our team can work best to support growth.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Because we have a distributed team now, we prioritize flexibility to keep velocity high. YC would help us build growth and fundraising regardless of where we're based.
