What happened
Brahma AI raised $150 million through preferred shares, with $100 million from Multiples Alternate Asset Management, and got a further $100 million of investor interest.
Why it matters
The money backs an AI-native operating system for enterprise audiovisual content, and Multiples is betting on that platform in a market it calls multi-billion-dollar.
What to watch
The $100 million of interest is not yet committed capital, so the round's final size hinges on whether those investors convert. Brahma AI is led by Founder & CEO Prabhu Narasimhan.
WHO IT HITSThe deal lands on Multiples' investment team, which is committing $100 million to an enterprise audiovisual content platform whose named customers span Warner Bros, the NBA and Mayo Clinic — a bet these buyers keep buying.

Brahma AI frames itself as an AI-native operating system for enterprise audiovisual content, spanning four verticals: media & entertainment, sports, healthcare and advertising. Its anchor customer list — Warner Bros, the NBA and Mayo Clinic — and distribution partners Google, Hakuhodo and DNEG show a company already selling into large organizations rather than a pre-launch startup.
The company says it was born from CEO Prabhu Narasimhan's vision to combine the technology stack and capabilities developed across DNEG, Metaphysic and Prime Focus Technologies. Under his leadership, Brahma AI built its platform around Brahma AI Core and Brahma AI Studio and went on to win a 2026 Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award, recognition Multiples cites as reinforcing its conviction.
Co-Founder & CTO Jo Plaete heads the technology and R&D division, which is where the new capital is directed. Multiples CEO Renuka Ramnath describes the thesis as reimagining the content supply chain in the age of AI and points to a multi-billion-dollar market. Whether that bet pays off hinges on whether the pipeline converts into enterprise deployments at the scale of the named customers.
