we’re
Pika was founded by two Stanford Ph.D students who felt making videos was too damn hard. So, they decided to make it easier for anyone to create video on command.
Where your creativity goes, we follow.
We make tech to do your ideas justice
Pika aims to precisely match your vision, even if you have zero experience in video creation. We want you to be able to tell Pika what to create, alter, or add with a simple command.
If it’s not possible today, we’ll build it tomorrow
What Pika is capable of today was impossible a few months ago. When we hear creators need a new feature, we get to work and build it — sometimes, overnight.
We believe the future belongs to creators, not AI
Without a great idea, Pika is powerless. By lowering the barrier to entry, we’re building a future that’s actually expanding opportunities for creativity — not taking them away.
Making cartoon animals, diffusion models, and occasionally, headlines
Professional-quality video creation will also become democratized by generative AI. We believe Pika will lead that transformation.
We’re a company of creators
We’re a bunch of AI researchers, filmmakers, programmers, and even fashion designers, united by a love of moving fast and making things. Because great ideas can’t afford to wait.
Our team may be small, but between us, we speak 8 languages. Some of us have won international medals in programming. One of us even toured Europe in a metal band.
We’ve had meetings about capturing the precise movement of a cat. We’ve created new features in a matter of days. And we’ve had a ton of fun doing it.
If that excites you, we’d love to meet you.
