Absurd

Absurd is an AI video creation platform positioning itself as "the Creative OS for AI video." It uses autonomous AI agents to handle scripting, scene planning, and video generation, letting companies produce brand and performance advertisements at scale in roughly 72 hours instead of weeks. Based in Los Angeles and part of Y Combinator's Fall 2025 batch, Absurd works with brands such as Hims, Kalshi, Replit, and Brex, with some of its generated videos reaching over a million organic views. As of this profile the company markets a product surface only (portfolio, careers, and contact pages) and does not publish a public API, developer documentation, or SDKs; this entry was enriched from public web sources and will be upgraded if a developer surface appears.

Absurd is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Generative AI, Video, and Advertising.
