Co-founder Florent Facq says, “Being creative is not just about generating an image; it’s about creating a coherent and relevant universe, defining clear and powerful aesthetic intentions. Current generative AI models don’t meet these challenges. We need to push technology and interfaces even further.”
Co-founder Tomás Yany adds, “Pimento ignites the true spirit of the creative work: curating, guiding, selecting. More than ever, the trained and professional judgment of creative people is crucial for ensuring coherence and relevance. AI brings out the best of them.”
At the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, Pimento's founders, Florent Facq and Tomás Yany, bonded over a shared love of art and technology. Before starting Pimento in 2022, Yany worked as an AI researcher at Apple US and then as a technical lead at Nabla, a Paris-based AI health business. Facq created Pass Culture, which benefited millions of young French consumers.
