Napkin, an AI visual platform founded by former Google employees, recently secured $10 million in funding led by Accel and CRV. The platform aims to assist users in quickly creating visual content using generative AI technology, with a focus on optimizing design processes and reducing time and hassle. Napkin's core product targets marketing, content creation, and engineering professionals, allowing users to start from text or generate text based on prompts. The platform generates a Notion-like canvas, enabling users to customize visual effects and export in various formats.

Napkin is a 'visual AI' platform developed by Pramod Sharma and Jerome Scholler, designed to streamline the creative expression process by converting text into visual graphics, helping marketers, content creators, and engineers effectively communicate ideas. The platform generates various visual elements such as flowcharts, charts, and infographics from text input, and allows users to customize icons, colors, fonts, etc. The created visual content can be exported as PNG, PDF, SVG files, or URL links.
