SAN FRANCISCO, Oct  21 (Bernama) -- Golpo, the AI-powered platform that transforms documents and prompts into interactive explainer videos, announced today it has raised $4.1 million in a heavily oversubscribed seed round led by BNVT Capital (spin out from the Gates Foundation and Hedosophia), alongside Emergence Capital, Y Combinator, Afore Capital and others. The raise attracted overwhelming investor demand, forcing the founders to turn away significant additional capital.

Golpo was founded by brothers Shraman Kar (19) and Shreyas Kar (20) who dropped out of their computer science degrees at Stanford to realise their vision of making AI video communication practical, scalable, and accessible to everyone.
