Overview
Promethean AI is described on its site as an "enterprise braintrust" and creative AI assistant for world‑building and asset management that sits on top of existing pipelines and editors. It indexes and reasons about assets (images, videos, 3D models, animations, PDFs, presentations) via a metadata-driven "Braintrust", and provides an Asset Browser, Palettes, Inspiration mode (browser) and Source File mode (folder sync) to surface references and keep metadata synchronized. The product offers natural-language AI Assistant capabilities to propose combinations and design decisions, command-line asset search in the public build, collaboration boards and shared palettes (syncable via shared folders, MySQL, or S3), and primary integration with Unreal Engine plus open-source plugins for Unity, 3ds Max, Maya and Blender (plugin compatibility may vary by editor/version). Enterprise features listed on the site include Python customization, a short/API integration option, SSO, MFA, account ownership controls, CI/CD deployment support, optional managed storage, and the ability to train custom AI models for specific pipelines. Privacy and data handling guidance on the site emphasizes that assets remain under customer control; the architecture builds a metadata library and the site claims not to upload, store, or train on customers' actual asset files. Sharing of the metadata library can be done via shared folders, databases (MySQL), or S3; an optional managed upload/storage service is offered. The site markets a free public build (downloadable) with limited features compared to enterprise, and lists a Free plan on the pricing page but does not publish paid enterprise pricing or tier breakdowns online—interested parties must contact sales or request a demo. Company/leadership information referenced on the site and collected externally: Founder/CEO Andrew Maximov (former technical art director at Naughty Dog). External sources referenced on/linked from the site list 2018 as the founding/start year. The site references marketing/support claims (e.g., references to 10,000+ users and supporters such as PlayStation Studios / Sony and Disney Accelerator) as promotional claims visible on the site. Key pages referenced: Home, Pricing, Public Download, FAQ, Enterprise features & API, Tutorials, Games & Film, Outsourcing & Asset Production, and License Agreement. The site encourages joining their Discord community (link present in footer/download page) and references social channels (YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram). For enterprise purchases the site implies contacting sales or using support/contact forms; the License Agreement page references a support email (exact email present on that page).
