About Inworld

At Inworld, we believe the processes of building, scaling, and evolving applications are monsters that consume value before it can reach users. Our mission is to solve evolution and transform static software into AI systems that autonomously evolve to better serve their users. We are building an intelligent runtime to conquer these monsters and make this vision a reality.

We are backed by investors such as Lightspeed, Section 32, Kleiner Perkins, Microsoft’s M12 venture fund, BITKRAFT, Founders Fund, and First Spark Ventures. Our technology is used by category leaders, including NVIDIA, Microsoft Xbox, Niantic, Wishroll, Little Umbrella and Streamlabs, among many others. Inworld has been recognized by CB Insights as one of the 100 most promising AI companies globally and has been named one of LinkedIn's Top 10 Startups in the USA.
