Hexo develops an open-source image generation API that offers extensive controls to make image generation more predictable and accurate. Its enterprise-focused flagship product, Fine Tuner, enables companies to build custom image generation engines tailored to a firm’s design language, products, characters, and IP. The founders, Vignesh Baskaran and Kunal Bhatia, position the product for use cases including game asset creation as well as film storyboarding, animation, and VFX. Hexo emphasizes enabling enterprises to generate images within a narrow, highly customized framework rather than art-for-art’s-sake outputs. The startup recently raised $270,000 in pre-seed funding to support product development and go-to-market. Antler India, which backed Hexo via its Residency initiative, framed the company as building a critical infrastructure layer for generative AI.
