Moonlake AI raises US$28 million in Nvidia-led seed round to advance AI-driven simulation
Copilot:
Moonlake AI builds generative AI tools that let users create interactive 2D and 3D game worlds using natural language prompts. Their platform handles layout, physics, agent behavior, and real-time editing, making world-building fast and accessible.
What Moonlake AI Offers
- Generative game creation: Users can "vibe code" entire game environments—meaning they describe what they want in plain language, and Moonlake’s AI generates it.
- 2D and 3D support: The platform can build both flat and immersive worlds.
- Real-time interactivity: Includes physics simulation, agent behavior, and editable environments.
- Natural language interface: No coding required—just describe your world and the AI builds it.
Company Highlights
- Founded by: Fan-Yun Sun and Sharon Lee, both from Stanford AI Lab.
- Funding: Raised $28 million in seed funding from AIX Ventures, Threshold, Nvidia Ventures, and tech investors like Steve Chen and Naval Ravikant.
- Current status: In private preview with early access applications open.
Moonlake AI is part of a broader wave of generative platforms aiming to democratize content creation—similar to how Sora 2 from OpenAI is reshaping video generation. If you're curious how Moonlake's physics engine stacks up against Unity or Unreal, or how their agent behavior scripting compares to traditional game AI, I’d be happy to dig deeper. |
