Sekai Raises $26M in Seed and Series A as Users Create, Play, and Remix 15 Million Mini-Apps
San Francisco, CAFunding, co-led by Khosla Ventures and Connect Ventures, will scale engineering and product and deepen Sekai’s creator partnerships with Creative Artists Agency (CAA)
San Francisco, CA
Sekai, the consumer platform where anyone can build software by describing what they want, today announced $26 million in Seed and Series A funding. The Series A of $20 million was co-led by Keith Rabois at Khosla Ventures and Nicole Quinn at Connect Ventures, with participation from new investors 359 Capital, Parable VC, and 645 Ventures.The seed round was led by Navin Chaddha at Mayfield, with existing investors a16z speedrun, A*, and MVP Ventures all returning for the Series A. The funding comes as users have built more than 15 million mini-apps on the platform, with 200,000 new apps created every day.
Sekai is founder Lucky Zhang’s fourth company. His first was acquired by Apple. His second, the largest short-video platform in Latin America, was acquired by TikTok. His third, Vietnam’s largest music streaming platform, is still running.
The platform turns a prompt into a playable, shareable app in seconds. Today, users on Sekai are building interactive experiences across games, memes, art, fan tools, niche utilities, and quizzes at a rate of one new app every half-second. For example – when Coachella dropped its 2026 lineup, a 20-year-old in Los Angeles spent an afternoon building a personality quiz on Sekai. By the end of the weekend, 50,000 people had played it. Five years ago, the same project would have taken a team of developers weeks.
“Every great consumer platform starts with a new format,” said Zhang. “Twitter had microblogging. Instagram had mobile photography. AI-generated software is the next one, and Sekai is where anyone can create, play, and remix software as real, working mini-apps.”
“The most ambitious consumer companies of the next decade will be built around new formats that AI makes possible. Most attempts have been incremental,” said Keith Rabois, Managing Director at Khosla Ventures. “Sekai has what most consumer startups lack: a distinct format, exceptional product velocity, and a founder who has already shipped at scale.”
“The most valuable companies of the next decade will sit at the intersection of AI and culture, products that feel like entertainment, not software,” said Nicole Quinn, Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Connect Ventures. “Fifteen million user-created apps, with users spending over an hour a day on the platform, is the kind of early signal we look for. Pairing Lucky’s team with the relationships we have through CAA, Sekai has a real chance to define a new category of consumer experience.”
Sekai’s remote-first team is hiring across engineering and product. Open roles can be found at https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/sekai.

More than 400 natural gas industry executives and thought leaders gather to examine insights into U.S. mid-continent natural gas markets, and to structure transactions to buy, sell and transport natural gas and LNG.
Houston, Texas
Over four-hundred energy industry professionals gather in September to gain insight and examine up-to-the-minute issues facing the U.S. mid-continent natural gas market region. The 38th annual LDC Gas Forum Mid-Continent takes place September 14 – 16, 2026 in Chicago, IL. This is the industry’s premier gathering for natural gas and LNG industry professionals, which is much more than simply a conference, with participants routinely negotiating commercial transactions during the event.
This year’s Program is structured to address critical issues faced by natural gas and LNG market stakeholders across the value chain. Key themes for the Agenda include worldwide geopolitical events impacting U.S. and global natural gas and LNG markets, as well as industry response to the phenomenal increase in natural gas demand, primarily from natural gas power generation to feed AI data centers, but also to supply LNG exports. Beyond these overarching themes the Agenda also addresses issues unique to U.S. mid-continent natural gas markets, including:
- Demand for reliable/non-intermittent electricity in the form of natural gas-fired power generation
- Gas/electric coordination challenges
- Accelerating development of natural gas midstream infrastructure (pipeline, storage, distribution) to overcome constraints to support demand growth (permitting reform)
- Evolving gas supply flow patterns in and around the U.S. mid-continent market region
- Impact of natural gas exports (LNG and Mexico) competing for supply from production regions traditionally serving U.S. mid-continent markets
- State and local energy policy implications, including zero carbon energy mandates
Recurring LDC Gas Forum topics include market fundamentals (supply/demand/price), natural gas supply sufficiency, midstream infrastructure project updates, end-use natural gas buyer perspectives, policy/regulatory/legal analysis, and technology innovations. These topics are discussed in the context of the commercial operations value chain involving producing, transporting, and buying natural gas and LNG.
The Program for the LDC Gas Forum Mid-Continent consists of 2 ½ days of Presentations and moderated Panels providing topical content, insight, analysis, and takeaways from industry leaders and subject matter experts.
Keynote addresses include: James Pearson, Senior Analyst Gas Fundamentals, ConocoPhillips, David Doyle, Head of Economics, Macquarie Group, Wendall Dallas, President & CEO, Nicor Gas.
The Program also includes five moderated Panel discussions addressing a variety of timely topics, discussed by knowledgeable industry leaders representing the following leading organizations: East Daley Analytics, Bloomberg,Natural Gas Intelligence (NGI) , Southern Company Gas, PJM, EQT, Southern Company, nGenue, Trellis Energy Software, NatGasHub.com, SEO Agency USA, Enbridge Gas Ontario, Mansfield Power & Gas, Enbridge Gas,SoCal Gas, Nicor Gas (Southern Company) , Advanced Power (an ArcLight company), Bunge North America,Oklahoma Natural Gas, Nicor Gas (Southern Company), and Cleveland Advisory. Panel discussions offer an excellent opportunity to gain actionable insight into topical issues, with drill-down focus, from a variety of unique perspectives.
A special all-women Panel is also been included in this year’s Agenda, entitled “Beyond the Seat at the Table: Influence, Impact & Opportunity”. This Panel of women across the energy industry, examines how female leaders are influencing critical decisions, driving meaningful impact, and creating opportunities for future leaders. Panelists will draw on their own experiences, sharing perspectives on leadership, professional growth, and the ways mentorship and sponsorship can help unlock potential in others.
The Program also incorporates multiple sessions of dedicated time for networking, to facilitate discussion, including with Speakers, and to meet and connect with existing and prospective customers, as well as key product/service providers from across the value chain.
This Forum focuses on U.S. mid-continent natural gas markets, while five other LDC Gas Forums throughout the year address other primary regions and key market segments across the continent. Registration is available at www.ldcgasforums.com/mc.
