Anorak builds interactive generative video—AI-generated entertainment that responds to users’ choices in real time—for niche communities and the creators who serve them.
Anorak is betting that generative video can make playable entertainment faster, cheaper, and controllable enough to serve niche communities—such as anglers, sneakerheads, padel players, birdwatchers, and K-pop fans—that traditional game economics overlook. Its $5 million pre-seed will expand a 20-person London-and-Chengdu team, bring first playable formats to market, and support a creator platform planned for early 2027.
