Video AI startup Poolday announced an $11M raise, aiming to make video editing tools—not editors—obsolete. Its agent takes a video brief, works with existing footage and brand assets, assembles finished cuts, and calls generative models only when new content is needed. Output stays editable layer by layer.
- 700,000 agent runs and 100M+ video edits completed for businesses worldwide.
- Example: product update videos built from real UI footage and actual Figma components in brand style.
- The agent QAs its own work; the product is now open to everyone.
