Moonvalley: Revolutionizing enterprise video generation with clean and controllable machine learning
Bessemer Venture Partners invests in Moonvalley's seed financing, as the company announces $70 million in funding to build the foundation for clean, controllable, and enterprise-grade generative video.
AI has a fidelity gap in video: while generative models have made significant strides, they often fall short when it comes to the exacting requirements for enterprise use cases, especially within commercial and cinematographic video. “Good enough” doesn’t meet the bar as generative AI needs to accurately represent real objects, emotion, and angles when they are used in a professional industry setting. Additionally, a transparency gap also exists as enterprise use of generative video requires models that are built to respect strict data governance and copyright standards. The lack of control precision and clean models within market offerings today has been a major limiting factor to AI adoption in the enterprise.
This is why we are so excited to partner with Moonvalley’s co-founders—Naeem Talukdar, John Thomas, Mateusz Malinowski, Bryn Mooser, and Mikolaj Binkowski—and their exceptional team on their groundbreaking journey to bring state-of-the-art generative AI creative models and tools to the enterprise.
Solving the current limitations of enterprise AI video generation goes beyond aesthetic parameters into the technical realm of foundation model innovations. This is an exceptionally non-trivial task with frontier challenges, and we could not think of a more fitting team to pursue this worthy endeavor. With a world class team of AI researchers, engineers, and creatives previously from companies such as Deepmind, Google, Meta, TikTok, Microsoft and more, Moonvalley is pioneering transformative approaches to tackle critical pieces of video AI, including highly precise object control, clean models, and purpose-built workflow tooling. Moonvalley’s goal is to provide enterprises in creative industries such as brand advertising and filmmaking with a robust, AI-native design platform that can unlock an unparalleled level of accuracy, collaboration, and customization, for video creation and editing.
“Moonvalley is driving transformative AI solutions that will shape the future of enterprise video generation in unprecedented ways, with tools and models designed to enhance trust, transparency, and efficiency,” said Naeem Talukdar, co-founder and CEO of Moonvalley.
As companies across industries seek to leverage AI for video content creation, we see an immense opportunity for Moonvalley to set new standards for excellence, transparency, and reliability, in enterprise video generation. We at Bessemer believe that by thoughtfully combining cutting-edge AI with intuitive design, Moonvalley will not just transform the landscape but will become an essential, foundational technology for any enterprise looking to elevate their video content in the AI era. Alongside our co-investors at General Catalyst and Khosla Ventures, we are thrilled to co-lead Moonvalley’s seed round as they revolutionize the world of generative video and enable enterprises to efficiently leverage cutting-edge AI innovations into their creative workflows.
