Creator of FaceU and CapCut Explains How to Build Products in the AI Era
Moonshot AI
Flova
Guo Lie, founder of FaceU and CapCut, broke his silence after nearly a year to share his product philosophy in the AI era. His new venture, Flova.ai, is an AI video creation agent that balances human creativity with agent intelligence. Flova has raised $80 million from Sequoia China, IDG, and others.
Guo Lie, the founder of FaceU and CapCut, after a year of seclusion, launched Flova.ai in October 2025, an AI video creation agent. The product uses a unique multi-view interface: a dialogue area for user instructions, a storyboard showing agent actions, and a preview area for real-time results. Flova focuses on maintaining coherent context across long projects, allowing agents to inherit previous creative decisions. The company has raised $80 million from Sequoia China, IDG, and others. Guo Lie emphasized rational product development, combining scientific A/B testing with intuition, and plans to operate at near-zero gross margin initially to attract users. He believes the AI video creation market is still early and collaborative, not competitive, with large models.
