Profile introduction

Over time, that curiosity evolved into building systems that could understand photos, videos, and language itself. Today, I’m the CTO and co-founder of Clik, where we’re building an AI agent for video, one that helps creators and teams turn hours of footage into the moments that matter. Our mission is simple: Create video faster Check out our AI video editor here: https://www.clik.vision/
