Arnav Ramu is Co-Founder and COO at Melius, the first agents lab for creative work, building a shared AI-powered creative operating system where teams of AI agents handle the production of images, video, and audio.

Arnav studied at the University of Michigan and previously worked in software investing at Hg and investment banking at Guggenheim Partners, focusing on software company transactions.

A multi-time entrepreneur, Arnav co-founded Excel Tutoring as his first profitable business and later served as Head of Corporate Development at Aizen Corp, an AI-driven financial services company.

At Melius, Arnav and his co-founders made the bold decision to scrap their entire original codebase and pivot from an AI performance marketing tool to a full agentic creative platform, securing $25M in funding from General Catalyst and CRV.

Since emerging from stealth in July 2026, Melius crossed a seven-figure annualized run rate in under three months, with thousands of creative teams using the platform daily to build brand assets.
