PixVerse Reaches $2 Billion: Video AI Continues to Captivate
The $2 billion valuation of PixVerse shows that investors still believe there is room for another winner in AI-generated video.
Based in Singapore, the video AI startup PixVerse is now valued at over $2 billion following an extended Series C funding round. The company raised $439 million from investors such as Alibaba, Lollapalooza Capital, and Mirae Asset. PixVerse was founded in 2023 by Wang Changhu, a former ByteDance executive, and Jaden Xie. It offers models for video generation, filmmaking, and world models for game development.
PixVerse claims to have over 150 million registered users and 15 million monthly active users. Co-founder Xie told TechCrunch that only a few companies can provide the necessary quality. OpenAI has shut down Sora 2, and Meta and Tencent have failed to build high-quality video models, he added.
The real advantage lies not in the data itself, but in how it is labeled. Changhu developed the visual AI technology behind TikTok at ByteDance, a system capable of accurately labeling data and providing more relevant recommendations. This experience translates directly into PixVerse's video platform. However, competition remains fierce. ByteDance, Midjourney, Google, Runway, Luma, and others are all advancing at a similar pace in the realm of video and world models.
