Visko opens Orbis, a real-time 4K interactive video model, after $10M pre-seed round
- Visko has opened public access to Orbis, a foundation model that continuously streams interactive video worlds with persistent memory instead of generating a fixed clip.
- According to Visko's technical report, Orbis generates 4K video at 24 fps in real time and sustains hour-scale generation without reported quality or color drift.
- Users can alter a prompt while a stream is running, and Orbis conditions each new frame on earlier output; Visko says a latent world model scores candidate futures for physically plausible motion and object dynamics.
- Visko said Orbis led the compared real-time and long-video systems on DOVER and VideoAlign measures, plus overall preference and temporal stability in its eight-system human study.
- The 16-person Sunnyvale startup, founded in 2025 by former Apple researcher Qing Yin, raised $10 million in pre-seed funding led by Llama Ventures.
