Higgsfield AI, a company focused on democratizing social media video creation, recently announced $8 million in seed funding led by Menlo Ventures. This new funding round marks a major milestone in Higgsfield AI’s goal to bring video AI generation and editing into the mainstream with its proprietary video model.
Diffuse empowers users to create highly personalized and realistic human characters from a single selfie. And with an intuitive Prompt Builder, users can craft original content using text prompts, reference images, or videos, all powered by Higgsfield AI’s proprietary video model.
The company already launched Diffuse in select markets, including India, South Africa, the Philippines, Canada, and Central Asia, with plans for a gradual global rollout.
