I am incredibly excited to announce @Creatify_AI ’s $15.5M Series A co-led by @WndrCoLLC and @KindredVentures. Our journey started 18 months ago when we launched the first AI video ad maker. It turns a product link into high-converting short video ads in minutes. Today over 1.5 million marketers, business owners and teams have used Creatify to generate video ads - many at a scale that was previously unimaginable. But making ads isn’t the only challenge to advertisers. It’s also about everything before and after. Ultimately it’s the result that matters. So we evolved and reimagined Creatify—not just as a creation tool, but as an intelligent, end-to-end system. Today, we are unveiling AdMax - the world’s first AI ad agent built for performance. AdMax is more than a tool. It is your always-on growth partner. It benchmarks competitors, spins up hundreds of creatives, a/b test them automatically, and delivers realtime performance insights. AdMax helps you find what works—then scale it. At Creatify, we automate video advertising from end to end. But what we really do is free business owners and marketers from the tedious work of researching, creating, testing, and optimizing ads—so they can focus on what actually matters: growing their business. We’re incredibly grateful to our investors for believing in our vision. Huge thanks to Jeffrey Katzenberg, @SujayJaswa, Chonghao Huang, @stevejang, @km, @natfriedman, @danielgross, @rememberlenny, @Hersh_Desai, Ray Cheng, @SashaKaletsky, @Caspar_Lee, Alison Rosenthal, @DionDong1, Peter Pan, @JamesBorow, @HiroTien, @blackpanda95131, @dzhou, Joe Sha, @RicoMallozzi, Jerry Ye, and other incredible investors and industry leaders who’ve backed us.

Scaling interpretability work for frontier AI alignment has never been more important. That’s why we’re launching Ember - the first hosted mechanistic interpretability API with fast inference support for generative models like Llama 3.3 70B.
