About Yarn

Video is the most compelling medium ever invented.

But even a single minute of video can take hours to make and expertise across multiple tools. 

AI will change this forever, and how we create and consume video will look completely different in 5 years time. We're starting by 1000Xing the amount of video made by software companies. Not just more video, but better video – compelling, authentic, entertaining, and beautiful.

We're taking a novel approach in the video space. We think making videos is reasoning-heavy, so we're focusing on using LLMs and interfaces to orchestrate the best domain-specific models.

Our investors include YCombinator, General Catalyst, Leonis Capital, and angels from Pika Labs, Roblox, and Adobe.
