Proactor
Proactor AI
Proactor is an "active AI" product built by founder Qin Tian 秦天 and a team of roughly 30, launched in July 2025 . Unlike conventional assistants that respond only to prompts, Proactor is designed to perceive, think, and act proactively — for instance, detecting problems during a meeting, researching solutions in real time, and pushing relevant references and suggestions without being asked . Qin, a 30-year-old self-described "school dropout" who left middle school at 14 due to domestic violence, funded Proactor with earnings from two VR games — *War of Wizards* and *Cooking Clash* — that generate roughly $5–6 million annually in copy sales and in-app purchases . The broader team numbers over 80, with the VR titles still maintained by the original crew . Prior to Proactor's release, the project had not raised external funding .
