CREAO AI

It doesn't answer the question. It does the job - writes the code, calls the API, ships the app, then keeps running after you log off.

CREAO's home screen: a single prompt box where a sentence becomes software. The promise printed above it - "Run It All." - is the whole thesis in two words.

The Scene

It's 2 a.m., and the work is still getting done

Somewhere in Cupertino a ~22-person company is asleep. Its software is not. A content brief filed yesterday afternoon has already been researched, drafted, fact-checked against a live browser, and queued - by an agent that was never told to clock out. Nobody is watching the canvas. There is no canvas.

This is the small, slightly unsettling magic that CREAO AI is selling: not a chatbot that talks back, but a worker that follows through. You describe a task in plain language. A cloud-based "super agent" takes it from there - writing code, calling APIs, wiring up integrations, and delivering the result inside a sandbox. When the work succeeds, it doesn't evaporate. It's saved as an Agent App: a reusable, schedulable unit of automation with a memory of its own.

The pitch is almost rude in its confidence - one person doing the work of a team. The interesting part is that CREAO tries it on itself first.

"Productivity hits a ceiling when humans operate AI step-by-step."- Kai Cheng, Co-Founder & CEO

What It Actually Does

A conversation that ends in software

Where rivals hand you a builder, CREAO hands you a worker. Four moving parts do the heavy lifting.

01 / SUPER AGENT

It executes, not explains

A cloud agent that writes code, calls APIs and connects integrations to deliver real results in a sandboxed environment - not a paragraph telling you how you might.

02 / AGENT APPS

Work that becomes a tool

Every successful run is saved as a reusable, schedulable app with its own memory. Set it once; it runs on a schedule while you're offline.

03 / FULL-STACK

Front-end to database, one prompt

A single conversation can generate front-end, back-end, database and the core agent modules - the whole stack, no toolchain juggling.

04 / AGENT OS

Closed-loop, three layers

Coding agent, autonomous execution and workspace orchestration - a system where agents build their own tools and collaborate with each other.

The Plot Twist

They built it, shipped it, then deleted it

CREAO launched in September 2025 as a vibe-coding tool. It worked. People used it. And by December, the founders had scrapped it and rebuilt the whole thing around the agent-app model. Not because the first product failed - because they decided the real problem sat one level deeper.

"The real problem was one level deeper: how humans and agents actually work together."- Clark Gao, Co-Founder

SEP 2025

Public launch as a vibe-coding tool. Growth begins - all of it organic.

DEC 2025

The pivot: the original product is scrapped and rebuilt around the Agent App model.

APR 2026

$10M round led by Prosperity7 Ventures closes; total funding reaches ~$25M; user base hits 200,000.

The Operators

Three founders, three continents

A team scattered across the US, Canada and Hong Kong - led by an engineer who spent a decade building production AI for hundreds of enterprises.

Kai Cheng

CO-FOUNDER & CEO

A decade architecting production-grade AI for 250+ enterprise clients. Degrees in Math & Statistics.

Clark Gao

CO-FOUNDER

Focused on the harder question beneath the tooling - how people and agents collaborate.

Peter Pang

CO-FOUNDER & CTO

Believes an engineer's value is now thinking clarity and decision quality, not lines of code.

The Money

$25M in under a year

Three rounds, fast. The latest - $10M - was led by Prosperity7 Ventures, the $3B diversified fund of Aramco Ventures.

The Difference

Everyone else gives you a builder

The Rest

Gumloop asks you to wire visual workflows on a canvas. Relevance offers pre-built agent teams. Either way, you're still doing the assembling - dragging boxes, connecting nodes, managing the machine.

CREAO

Skips the builder interface entirely. You type a sentence. The super agent does the assembling, the building and the running. The interface is a conversation; the output is a working app that schedules itself.

For The Curious

Five things worth knowing

CREAO, off the record

200,000 users arrived without a dollar of paid marketing.
The team killed its first working product months after launch - and rebuilt from scratch.
CREAO runs its own ~20-person company largely on CREAO agents.
The entire thesis fits on the homepage in two words: "Run It All."
Founders span the US, Canada and Hong Kong - the company is distributed by design.

What You Can Build

Hand it the boring half of your job

Marketing & SEO

Spin up agents that run SEO research, content production and marketing operations - the same way CREAO runs its own.

Backend automation

Connect custom APIs and tools, then let agents handle repetitive backend processes that accumulate memory over time.

Full-stack apps

Describe an app in plain language and get front-end, back-end and database generated and deployed together.

Scheduled work

Save any successful run as an Agent App and set it to run on a schedule - working while you're offline.

Back To The Scene

Morning, Cupertino

The ~22-person company wakes up. The content brief from yesterday is finished, sourced, and waiting for a human to glance at it and hit go. The agent that did it is already onto the next one. Nobody touched a canvas. Nobody stayed up.

That 2 a.m. quiet from the opening - it used to be downtime. CREAO is betting it doesn't have to be. Whether that future belongs to CREAO or to Gumloop or to a tool not yet built, the founders have made their wager plainly, and put their own company on the line as proof: describe the work, and let it run itself. Two words on a homepage. The rest is execution.
