BRAHMA RAISES AI $150 MILLION ROUND LED BY MULTIPLES
Funding will accelerate R&D, global go-to-market and a significant Silicon Valley
presence as Brahma AI builds the operating system for enterprise audiovisual content
Los Angeles / London / Mumbai - 23rd September 2026 - Brahma AI, the AI-native operating
system for enterprise audiovisual content, today announced that it has raised $150 million through the
issuance of preferred shares with a $100 million investment by Multiples Alternate Asset
Management. The company has also received a further $100 million of investor interest.
Brahma AI is focused on four global verticals: media & entertainment, sports, healthcare and
advertising. Global anchor customers include Warner Bros, the NBA and Mayo Clinic and strategic
distribution partners include Google, Hakuhodo and DNEG.
Brahma AI was founded and is led by Founder & CEO Prabhu Narasimhan. Brahma AI was born from
Narasimhan’s vision to bring together the technology stack and capabilities developed across DNEG,
Metaphysic and Prime Focus Technologies to build an AI-native platform for the world’s largest
enterprises. Under his leadership, Brahma AI has developed its AI-native platform around Brahma AI
Core and Brahma AI Studio, secured major global customers and partnerships, and expanded the
application of its technology across media & entertainment, sports, healthcare and advertising.
Today, Brahma AI combines enterprise content intelligence and management with sophisticated AI
creation technologies spanning visual AI, digital humans, voice and multilingual performance. Its
technology has received significant industry recognition, including a 2026 Technology & Engineering
Emmy® Award.
Jo Plaete, Co-Founder & CTO and one of the world’s leading experts in AI, visual AI, digital humans
and high-fidelity synthetic media, heads Brahma AI’s technology and R&D division as the company
continues to develop and expand its AI platform.
Renuka Ramnath, Founder, MD & CEO of Multiples, said:
BRAHMA AI is reimagining the content supply chain in the age of AI. Built on a unique heritage of
Hollywood-grade technology and enterprise innovation, the company is helping organizations unlock
greater value through AI-powered content, intelligence, localization, digital humans, and workflow
automation. Its strong customer traction, differentiated capabilities and recognition thereof, including a
2026 Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award, reinforce our conviction in its ability to appropriate
the multi-billion-dollar market opportunity.
Our investment is anchored in the belief that every enterprise is becoming a content enterprise.
Prabhu, Jo and the broader team bring a deep understanding of the industries they serve and have
translated cutting-edge AI into highly relevant solutions, spanning enabling multilingual visual
experiences for films to developing digital twins for physicians. Multiples Private Equity will be an
active partner as the company navigates the next phase of growth through investments in R&D, global
market expansion, and talent & process build-out. The company has all the ingredients required to
build an enduring global institution in a category that is only beginning to take shape.
Namit Malhotra, Founder & CEO of DNEG, said:
Brahma AI began with Prabhu’s bold idea: to bring together the technology stacks and capabilities
developed across DNEG, Metaphysic and Prime Focus Technologies and create a new, independent
technology company built for the AI era. What he and his team have built from those foundations in
such a short period of time has been remarkable.
Under Prabhu’s leadership, Brahma AI has developed its own technology and products, won major
global customers and partnerships, and established a clear identity and ambition of its own. There is
also a special symmetry to this moment. Prabhu, United Al Saqer Group and Thor Björgólfsson
backed and invested in Prime Focus Limited, DNEG and me at an important stage in our journey.
Today, all of us are backing Brahma AI and Prabhu alongside new investors led by Multiples.
Prabhu Narasimhan, Founder & CEO of Brahma AI, said:
What excites me most about this investment is what it allows us to build next. We are close to
launching interactive digital humans, we are building Brahma AI to be model agnostic, and we are
taking our technology into entirely new use cases. And security, authenticity and provenance are
such an important part of what we are building.
What resonated with us about Multiples is our shared belief that category-defining companies are built
through a combination of bold ambition, disciplined execution and long-term thinking. I could not be
more excited to have Multiples alongside us as we scale globally and continue pushing the
boundaries of enterprise AI.
Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. served as sole placement agent on this equity financing.
