Nilo is ushering in a new era of social entertainment, where anyone can create a 3D experience: games, worlds, memes, and cinematic clips, just by describing their ideas. Built for web browsers and powered by generative AI, Nilo enables game developers, world builders, and content creators to transform text, images, or voice prompts into interactive multiplayer 3D worlds in seconds.
It’s creation at the speed of culture: whether spinning up a game inspired by today’s viral sound, turning a group chat joke into a playable world, or crafting a custom hangout, Nilo transforms imagination into interaction — instantly and collaboratively.
A New Kind of Creation Platform
Nilo is a collaborative 3D platform that works across desktop, mobile, Discord, and Telegram. It combines generative AI with world-building tools, allowing users to generate assets, characters, animations, and code from natural language or drawings.
The result: a radically simplified creation experience that lowers the barrier to entry and accelerates how quickly new ideas can be built, tested, and shared.
“Every kid has imagined their own game world. Until now, building one required years and an art or engineering degree, but Nilo makes it possible in seconds. It’s where imagination becomes interaction. Culture moves at the speed of a meme, and we give creators the tools to keep up, remix, and build worlds instantly using text, images, and voice.
Nuno Leiria, Founder and CEO of Nilo
Made for Gen Alpha: 3D Creation that feels like play
Nilo’s fun-first approach is a viral gateway for Gen Alpha to become the next wave of 3D developers.
Company’s initial target market is digital natives raised in 3D environments like Minecraft and Roblox, where games double as social hubs, creative canvases, and expressions of identity. However, platforms offering deep creative expression and professional customization, such as Unreal Engine, Unity, Blender, and Roblox Studio, remain inaccessible due to their complexity.
With 735 million monthly users across Roblox, Fortnite, and Minecraft, the appetite for user-generated 3D content is massive. Nilo uses AI to democratize creation across platforms, unlocking a vast, untapped segment of AI-enabled creators.
“We’re building Nilo for a generation that remixes culture in real time. Our goal is to make 3D creation feel as natural and playful as posting a meme or starting a group chat. This funding lets us move faster toward a future where anyone can build the worlds they want to live in.”
Nuno Leiria, Founder and CEO of Nilo
Visionaries with Industry Backing
The company was founded in April 2024, bringing together veterans from Fortnite, Twitch, YouTube, Snapchat, Microsoft, Adobe, Blizzard, VRChat, Rec Room, and major VFX projects like Avatar and Star Wars.
To accelerate its mission, Nilo has raised $4 million in seed funding led by Supercell, creators of Clash of Clans, with participation from leading investors such as a16z speedrun, KFund, Flex Capital, Next Tier Ventures, Shilling VC, Essence VC, Corenest Capital, Earthling VC, Prototype Capital, and Script Capital.
The round also includes support from leading angels such as Marc Petit, Blake Hall, Matt Bilbey, Logan Kilpatrick, Denes Ban, Safi Bahcall, and others.
“Their approach to making game creation as enjoyable as gameplay itself really stood out.
Nilo has the potential to open up game development to a whole new generation of builders.”
Jaakko Harlas, Head of Investments at Supercell
Nilo’s closed Early Access release is slated for September 2025. Join the official Discord channel to become a Founding Builder, gain exclusive access, and help shape the future of play.
