Why Mirage
Gaurav Misra and Dwight Churchill met while working at Localytics, a mobile analytics startup. They saw platforms like TikTok taking off in popularity, and noticed a clear gap: While short-form video was quickly gaining steam, creating short-form video was still hard to do.
This insight inspired them to start Mirage. By removing the friction from video creation and editing, Mirage gives anyone the ability to build an audience and grow their brand. As the company advances what's possible with AI, Mirage will keep pushing the limits for video.
