Creao AI
CREAO AI
Creao AI is a Silicon Valley-based startup building an **Agentic OS (AOS)**—a platform that lets non-technical users create, deploy, and orchestrate AI agents through conversation rather than code . Founded in late 2024 by CEO Kai Cheng (程凯), whose background includes a decade building production AI systems for over 250 enterprise clients, the company has raised more than **$30 million** across three rounds in under a year, with backers including Yunqi Capital, Monolith, GL Ventures, HongShan (Sequoia China), Hua Capital, and most recently Prosperity7 Ventures and Matrix Partners China .
The product architecture centers on a three-layer **Agent OS**: a programming agent that generates tools via natural language, autonomous execution that runs them without human intervention, and a persistent workspace where agents accumulate memory across tasks . Cheng frames the bet as moving past the "chatbot" era—where AI answers questions—to one where agents "work while you sleep," with 80-90% of user-built agents on the platform already seeing repeat, stable task execution . The team, drawn from Meta's Llama AI team, Apple, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Alibaba, has pivoted five times since forming, cycling through synthetic data, workflow builders, and natural-language programming before landing on the current "super-agent" model in late 2025 .
