Mirelo, a German AI startup, has secured $41 million in seed funding to tackle the challenge of silent AI-generated videos. The funding round was co-led by Index Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz, signalling strong investor confidence in the emerging field of AI audio.
Mirelo is developing AI models capable of generating perfectly synchronised sound effects for videos. Their platform analyses video content to create context-aware sound effects, eliminating the need for manual audio editing. The company's goal is to become the go-to audio layer for all visual content, spanning videos, games, social media, and films. Mirelo's technology promises to save creators time and transform how audiences experience moving images.
Mirelo SFX, the company's AI model, generates sound effects directly from visuals without needing text descriptions. The model produces high-quality, cinematic sound effects and is optimised for synthetic video content. Mirelo SFX is available on fal.ai, offering real-time generation and multiple variations.
