Melius Secures $25M to Build AI Agent Lab for Creative Work
Melius has raised $25 million to develop what it calls the first agents lab for creative work, reaching seven-figure revenue in under three months.
Melius, a startup positioning itself at the intersection of artificial intelligence and creative production, has raised $25 million to expand its so-called agents lab — billed as the first of its kind dedicated to creative work. The funding round signals growing investor appetite for AI tools that move beyond simple generation into autonomous, multi-step creative workflows.
The company reached a seven-figure annual run rate in fewer than three months following the launch of its agentic creative operating system, a milestone that likely helped attract the latest round. An agentic system differs from conventional AI tools in that it can plan, execute, and iterate on complex tasks with minimal human intervention — a capability increasingly sought after in marketing, media, and design industries.

The $25 million infusion is expected to fund research, engineering hires, and further development of the agentic operating system as Melius works to entrench itself before larger technology players move more aggressively into creative automation. The company has not disclosed the identities of investors or the specific valuation attached to the raise.
