Melius is building the agents lab for creative work.

We’re creating a new category of AI-native creative tooling: a collaborative workspace where humans and agents generate, edit, and orchestrate images, videos, and audio together, allowing users to steer and have full creative control of their workflows. Instead of jumping between fragmented tools, prompts, and workflows, Melius gives artists, creators, and teams an entire ecosystem to direct AI end-to-end.

Our platform combines real-time collaborative infrastructure, multimodal AI models, and agentic workflows to help brands, studios, and creative teams store, create, and polish high-quality creative output at a scale never seen before.

We’re based in New York City, backed by top-tier investors, and focused on building one of the defining creative software companies of the AI era.
