Layer, a San Francisco, CA-based developer of an AI application gateway built specifically for game developers, raised $6.5M in seed funding.
The round was led by Arcadia, and an investment vehicle connected to Riccardo Zacconi (co-founder of King), with participation from existing investors e2.vc (formerly 500 Emerging Europe).
The company intends to use the funds to deliver tools for mobile studios while expanding the team and building features to support a wide range of games.
Led by CEO Volkan Gurel, Layer is a provider of an AI-powered content creation platform built for game developers. By integrating generative AI directly into existing pipelines, it enables studios to produce high-quality 2D, 3D and Video assets at scale while maintaining full creative control.
Over 200 studios, including Zynga, SciPlay and Huuuge Games, use Layer to accelerate production and push the boundaries of game development.
