The company

What Anthum AI is building

Anthum connects brands with AI video creators through creative contests. A brand supplies a brief and prize pool, creators submit advertising ideas, and the brand selects and licenses winning work. Anthum is the creator-facing portal; General Creative serves brands using the same platform. The model combines generative tools with human creative direction and selection.
