Company mission

To democratize knowledge by making video affordable for all.

Our take

Companies such as OpenAI have paved the way for a new generation of AI technology, and shifted public perspective on how we interact with it. Colossyan is a company focused on video, rather than text or image generative AI, that can be used for training videos and content creation.

Colossyan generates videos from prompts, taking away the need for the expensive equipment, manpower and time required for video creation. Customers can input a script, with which Colossyan’s AI algorithms digitally generate performers called “avatars”. Although not suitable for all video needs, it is especially useful for presentations, documents, instruction videos, and marketing materials.

Colossyal, like many generative AI companies, has enjoyed significant funding in the last few years. Its most recent round of funding is being put towards extending its services across key global markets. DeepBrain and Heygen are among the swathe of competitors in the sector, but this lucrative investment should help Colossyal grow and maintain a lead over its rivals.

Company values

  • Put the customer first - Everything follows from how much value we can provide our customers. We show our product to let creators see if it suits them and prioritize their experience over the bottom line
  • Embrace the challenge - The uncertainty and difficulty of deep tech make it interesting. We don't avoid changing direction or grappling with complex technical problems
  • Be straightforward - Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. We insist on honesty in communication and simplicity in design
  • Enjoy the ride - Growing a startup can be hectic, but it should be fun. We prioritize culture-fit over technical skills or experience
  • Act like an owner - In other companies, people are conditioned to think only in terms of the specific responsibilities of their role. We think more broadly - challenging decisions, clarifying ideas, and highlighting issues across the business
