About

A new species of
content company.

StarTrail is an AI-native content studio. We were built from the ground up around AI production — not a traditional studio bolting AI on, but a company whose entire pipeline is AI-first.

Founded in 2025 and headquartered in Singapore, StarTrail produces AI live-action film & TV, AI animation, and AI commercials on a proprietary technology stack that delivers theatrical-grade imagery and character performance at a fraction of traditional timelines and cost.

In under a year, our work has been selected at the iQIYI Nadou AIGC Venture Summit, the Beijing International Film Festival AIGC Section, and the AAFF International Ark AI Film Festival, our production engine took the enterprise track championship at the 2026 iFLYTEK AI Developer Competition, and we have co-produced with national institutions and leading streaming platforms.
