Toronto-based startup Viggle AI has raised $19M in Series A funding to enhance its generative AI character animation platform. The investment round was led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), with participation from Two Small Fish.
- AI Animation Innovation: Viggle AI, led by CEO Hang Chu, uses cutting-edge artificial intelligence to simplify animation creation through text prompts. Their proprietary JST-1 technology brings lifelike physics to character movements, making animations more realistic.
- Monetization and Expansion: Viggle AI offers a paid Pro tier, providing higher usage limits for more intensive creators. To further expand, the company will launch a creator program, offering Pro subscriptions, video creation credits, and exclusive early access to new features.
- Future Plans: With the fresh capital, Viggle AI is poised to solidify its presence in AI-driven animation, aiming to empower users at all skill levels to create professional-grade animated content with ease.
Viggle AI is well on its way to transforming the landscape of controllable video generation through innovative AI technology.
