Kaon (prev. FlowGPT)
Kaon (formerly FlowGPT) is a San Francisco AI-native content lab building consumer AI experiences. After scaling FlowGPT into a 4M+ monthly user prompt marketplace, the team shifted gravity to Emochi - an AI character roleplay app that has climbed into the top tier of consumer AI with millions of monthly users. Founded in 2023 by UC Berkeley dropout Jay Dang and co-founder Lifan Wang, the company raised $10M led by Goodwater Capital and DCM in early 2024 and added a strategic round backed by B Capital and Redpoint in 2025.
