造梦次元
Zaomeng Ciyuan (造梦次元) is an AI-native interactive content platform developed by Shenzhen-based IdeaFlow (想法流), a company founded in 2023 by Shen Qiajin . Positioned as a next-generation content platform for young users, it offers multimodal, story-driven virtual character interactions combining text, voice, and image generation, with a "character-as-IP" model that had produced nearly 100 characters with tens of thousands of followers each as of October 2024 .
The platform has shown strong traction: it launched in February 2024, surpassed 10 million cumulative users by June 2025, and records daily active interaction time exceeding 100 minutes—among the highest in the AI content sector . Its heavy model usage consumes over 100 billion tokens daily, spiking to 160–180 billion on weekends and holidays, making it a testing ground for foundation model providers . IdeaFlow raised tens of millions of RMB in a Series A round led by Jinqiu Fund in late 2024, with participation from Gaorong Ventures, MingShi Ventures, and SenseTime . Shen has described the company's approach as "riding the waves" of foundation model progress, emphasizing rapid integration of new AI capabilities into consumer experiences .
