Founder, Flame

Building the paywall and checkout layer that lets creators funnel their followers and viewers into paying customers for AI-made movies, shows, music, games and more.

Natan Castiel is the founder of Flame, which is building the distribution and monetization layer for AI-made products, spanning movies, shows, music, games, apps and art. His thesis is that AI has made creation dramatically easier, while the systems for turning an audience into revenue have not kept pace.

Flame aims to close that gap by giving creators a direct funnel: bring your followers and viewers in, put a paywall and checkout in front of the work, and start earning from it fast. Its ambition is to become an Amazon-style home for AI-made products, where creators can reach buyers and build businesses around what they create.
