Melius (trymelius), an agents lab for creatives, announced a $25M fundraise led by General Catalyst and CRV, with participation from Genius Ventures, Vine Ventures, Antifund, and angels like rauchg.
The startup aims to let agents leverage generative models so anyone can bring ideas to life instantly. The accompanying post argues AI collapses the gap between "I wish" and "I made this," splitting people into those who wait for someday and those who build now.
