About Inworld

At Inworld, we believe the processes of building, scaling, and evolving applications are monsters that consume value before it can reach users. Our mission is to solve evolution and transform static software into AI systems that autonomously evolve to better serve their users. We are building an intelligent runtime to conquer these monsters and make this vision a reality.

We are backed by investors such as Intel Capital, Microsoft’s M12 fund, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Section 32, BITKRAFT Ventures, Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, and First Spark Ventures. Our technology is used by industry leaders like NVIDIA, Epic Games and Microsoft Xbox. Inworld has been recognized by CB Insights as one of the 100 most promising AI companies globally and has been named one of LinkedIn's Top 10 Startups in the USA.
