Now in closed beta with a planned mid-2025 release, the AI-native system, Intangible Studio, employs a Canva-like user experience to bring simplicity to 3D for teams in film, games, agencies and events.
GenAI startup Intangible has raised $4 million in funding from a16z Speedrun, Crosslink Capital, Karman Ventures, and industry angels to launch Intangible Studio, a 3D tool meant to simplify the creation process.The offering is currently in closed beta, with a public launch planned for mid-2025.
Designed to unlock creative freedom and eliminate the steep learning curve of 3D tools, the company’s AI-native studio seeks to empower teams in film, games, agencies and events to visualize ideas quickly and inexpensively.Intangible creates fully interactive worlds in a browser window in minutes, making professional-quality scene creation, storyboarding, and interactive design for the web simple and collaborative.A fast, browser-based, no-code interface allows creatives of all levels to go from a blank 3D canvas to high-fidelity images, video and 3D exports, using natural language and intuitive controls.
Intangible offers drag-and-drop scene components, kitbashing, dynamic camera control, interactive worlds, and multiplayer collaboration.With access to thousands of ready-to-use 3D assets, creatives can quickly populate scenes and experiment with ideas.“We believe that AI should amplify creativity, not constrain it or remove the human element,” said Charles Migos, CEO and co-founder of Intangible.
“Existing AI tools can generate static high-fidelity images and videos, but they lack dynamic movement, camera control, and interactivity – elements essential to professionals in film, gaming, and advertising.Now, everyone on the team can experience the joy of the creative process by bringing an idea to life, collaborating seamlessly, and ultimately delivering winning creative results.” The company was founded by Migos and technology entrepreneur Bharat Vasan, alongside industry veterans from Apple, Pixar, Unity, EA, ILM, Spotify and NASA.“Interactive 3D is one of the last unconquered realms, where growth is constrained by complexity,” said Vasan, Chairman and co-founder.
“Intangible is finally changing this by bringing an AI-native, Canva-like experience to the market.Powerful enough for the creative control required by tens of millions of industry specialists, but simple enough to be usable by an audience of hundreds of millions of creatives.”
“It’s rare to see a founding team that is both deeply experienced and deeply motivated by the challenges within their industry,” said Troy Kirwin, Investment Partner at Andreessen Horowitz.“Intangible is using AI to solve real problems in very large markets that stand to benefit from a 10x reduction in time, cost and complexity, by making 3D creation accessible to everyone.”
