@taiuti @reactorworld Cheers, Alberto! More to come. 🤝

Reactor emerges from stealth today. That's big time.

We’re excited to support the team as they explore the art of the possible with real-time AI workloads on AWS.

@reactorworld is building the platform layer for real-time generative video, enabling developers to build interactive AI worlds and experiences at global scale.

Congrats to the team! We can't wait to see what you all do next.

[reactor @reactorworld]

Today Reactor is coming out of stealth. We’ve raised $59M in Seed and Series A funding, led by @lightspeedvp, with participation from @AmplifyPartners, @wndrco, @Sky9Capital, and @FPVventures.

Reactor is the platform for building in the World Model era: the infrastructure that lets developers build with them at global scale for the first time. Stream from a frontier World Model to your app, in real time, all in under 10 lines of code.

World Models represent the next major shift in AI: pixels, audio and actions are generated on the fly, in real-time, in response to user inputs, and to the environment. Every time computing has made a shift from passive to interactive, entire industries appeared that didn't exist before. We're standing in front of such moment again.

Over the last 6 months, we’ve assembled an all-star team with alumni from Apple, Meta, Google, Luma AI, Netflix, and Replicate. We're already partnering with some of the biggest names and labs in the world, and hundreds of developers are already building on Reactor.

The World Model era starts now.

[AWS Startups @AWSstartups]

@willemhelmet @reactorworld Bzzzzzzzzzz... that's the sound of a world being built.

[AWS Startups @AWSstartups]

.@xpangler at @Variety gives us the scoop on @reactorworld coming out of stealth (with a healthy serving of AWS perspective).

The San Francisco-based startup has raised $59 million in Series A funding. Partnering with AWS, Reactor is building the foundational platform for real-time AI video generation.

What's Reactor's secret sauce? AWS Startups leaders Jason Bennett and Deap Ubhi dive into the technology powering their inference engine and how they can deliver at the speed of interaction, not just the speed of generation.

[AWS Startups @AWSstartups]

@reactorworld Big news! Congrats!

More of Akari's story: https://t.co/dtThLktH1t

[AWS Startups @AWSstartups]

If you've never heard the phrase 'fermented food startup' before, it's time to get familiar. Meet Akari Terrell, CEO and Founder of Komorebi Culture Collective.

Building a business goes beyond the tech and the funding. Ideating and receiving feedback is just as important.

AWS Impact Bootcamp Tokyo and @Techstars were able to provide Akari with that feedback, equipping her with the knowledge and support to scale and build.
