We are living in a golden age of AI-powered creativity. In the last two years, the quality of generative models has gone from interesting to extraordinary across image, video, audio, music, and voice. The raw capability to produce professional-quality creative work now exists, and it’s accessible to anyone.
But there’s a problem – the tool landscape has exploded. A marketer producing a short-form video might touch a half-dozen AI products in a single session: one for image generation, another for video, another for voiceover, another for music, plus ChatGPT to write the prompts in the first place. Each tool has its own interface, its own quirks, its own prompting style. The bottleneck to creative production is no longer talent or budget. It’s navigating the chaos.
This is the problem Glif solves, and why we’re excited to be leading their seed round.
Glif is a creative super agent – one AI agent with virtually every model built in. You describe what you want to make, and Glif helps you create it. Think of it as Claude Code for creative work: the same leap from “use a tool” to “direct an agent,” applied to the entire creative stack.
Glif’s method is analogous to Steven Spielberg’s approach to filmmaking. Spielberg doesn’t hold the camera himself. He directs – he focuses on vision, taste, and storytelling, and trusts his crew to handle execution. Glif lets you work the same way: you’re the creative director and the agent handles the tools and technical decisions.
What makes Glif’s depth unusual is a system called Skills: proven creative recipes built from the accumulated knowledge of millions of creative AI runs. The platform comes packed with a growing library out of the box – reliable workflows for short-form video, AI influencer content, infographics, music video lipsync, and the most viral AI-native formats. But you can also teach Glif your own taste, your own style, your own process. Once a skill works, your creative judgment is baked in from that point on.
Glif V2 is built on hard-won knowledge. The first version of Glif was an open AI sandbox where creators could chain models into reusable workflows. Millions of creators built on the platform, and entirely new creative formats were invented there – from miniature documentary videos to viral meme templates. The team took everything they learned and taught it to one agent.
The founding team is unusually well-matched to this moment. Fabian Stelzer studied cognitive science, then spent a decade as CEO of EyeQuant, an AI company using machine learning to predict human visual attention. He then became one of the earliest creators working at the intersection of AI and film, producing SALT – one of the first AI-generated film series, featured on CNN – before anyone had a playbook for it.
Jamie Wilkinson co-founded Know Your Meme, won a Primetime Emmy for the crowdsourced Star Wars Uncut project, and built VHX, a direct-to-fan video platform acquired by Vimeo. Between them, they bring deep AI expertise, a decade of building community-driven creative platforms, and firsthand experience making things with generative tools before most people knew they existed.
They’ve already proven they can build something millions of creators adopt. Now they’re building the product those creators need in the new age of media. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Fabian, Jamie, and the Glif team.
