Product focus balances immediate utility with long‑term world‑model ambition
  • While Marble showcases cutting‑edge research, the team deliberately built it to solve real problems for creators in gaming, VFX, and film.
  • This dual‑track approach ensures revenue streams that fund further research into grander world models.
  • The UI emphasizes precise camera control and instant feedback, differentiating it from frame‑by‑frame video generators.
  • By shipping a usable product early, World Labs gathers user data that informs the next generation of spatial AI.
