Introduction to Flora

Flora, founded by Weber Wong, has launched a new AI-powered 'infinite canvas' for creative professionals. The platform integrates with existing AI models, providing a visual interface where users can generate blocks of text, images, and video.

Key Features of Flora

Flora's 'infinite canvas' allows users to start with a prompt, generate content, and then ask for details about the generated content, leading to more prompts and varied outputs. The canvas can also be shared for collaborative work with clients.

Target Audience and Goals

Flora is initially focused on working with visual design agencies, with the goal of allowing designers to 'just do 100X more creative work.' The company aims to become useful to any and all artists and creatives.

Background and Funding

Weber Wong, the founder of Flora, has a background in both art and technology. Flora has received funding from A16Z Games Speedrun, Menlo Ventures, and Long Journey Ventures, among others.

AI and Creative Work

Flora's launch comes amidst debates about the role of AI in creative work. Wong believes that existing AI models are 'made by non-creatives for other non-creatives to feel creative,' and that Flora can provide a more powerful tool for actual creative professionals.
