Vivident, an AI-character IP start-up, has successfully secured seed funding to the tune of $1.5 million from investors spanning South Korea, Japan, the United States, and Hong Kong. The new online platform from Vivident, known as MoeLive, has attracted investments from several massive venture capital companies, including Hashed, Mashup Ventures, and Sfermion.
Combining elements of K-pop culture with anime from Japan and presenting them in a novel community-experience concept, MoeLive is poised to revolutionize the entertainment landscape. Utilizing generative AI technology, the platform will create virtual characters that can entertain their fans and evolve through such interactions, all completely free of charge. Vivident is ultimately aiming to create a new form of IP that seamlessly integrates technology, content, and community.
An AI-Powered Entertainment Platform: MoeLive
MoeLive boasts a key feature in the form of an interactive growth system. This system allows fans to actively participate in character development by voting on various activities and engaging in real-time interactions with the characters. In essence, it is a collaborative environment where the users collectively decide the fate of their beloved characters. Following this approach, Vivident plans to unveil the beta version of MoeLive by mid-2025. The platform will feature live streaming, real-time conversation, and social media connectivity.
Vivident was founded by GD Kim, who serves as the company's founder and CEO. Kim brings a wealth of experience in corporate strategy, gaming, and Web3 to the venture. Under his leadership, UNOPND, Kim's venture studio, played a pivotal role in the successful Modhaus project with tripleS. This achievement fuels Kim's vision for making MoeLive an equally triumphant endeavor.
With its unique blend of fan culture and AI technology, MoeLive has carved out a distinct niche in the realm of virtual entertainment. Vivident anticipates a simultaneous launch for the platform in South Korea, Japan, and the U.S. by the end of 2025, marking a significant juncture in both the AI and entertainment industries.
As a novel approach to AI-based entertainment, MoeLive endeavors to forge a connection between technology, content, and fan interaction.
